Hello, I recently decided to jump into meat corals (Acantho and Indophyllia) and think that is now the new obsession. Anyway my question is, what’s the best way to place them on sand bed? Do you just sit them on top of sand? Place a small pvc under them?

Thanks in advance.
 
Straight on the sand for me.

Sorry if this is a high jack but how hard are meat corals to take care of? I assume low light low flow and spot feeding right?

Similar to care for just like any others corals
I placed mine under the sump low flow-low light. Benefits to feed them, but I don’t

While typical is direct onto sand, I place mine on a shallow piece of flat rock
