I need help with coral placement. My GSP, Toadstool, and Zoa frag are not fully opening which I think is due to poor placement. Any thoughts? The flow goes from the back left to front right but is pointed slightly towards the waters surface.

How long have you had them? Toadstool like any leather can pout after they are moved, touched, think they were touched or bothered. They will become all shiny and shed. Than they will open up bigger. Let them settle in if you haven't yet .

Gsp needs to be on an island by itself. That is the only way to control growth and to make sure it doesn't take over .

Toadstool moderate flow no clue about zoas don't have any. They scare me;Nailbiting;Nailbiting;Nailbiting

Nice looking tank.

Toadstool can be placed on the bottom 3rd of the tank with indirect light, what I found worked best for mine. Gsp will take a few days to settle in but when they do they will take off, so they need to be isolated, gsp tend to like moderate light/waterflow but can thrive under many different light to flow combinations. And your zoanthids need low flow and moderate to low lighting. Patience is key in this hobby. Give your corals time to settle in and you will be happy
