A spot has opened up higher on my rocks, upper third of the tank about or a little under 6" from the surface. I am running a maxspect razor 180w at 65% on a 40 breeder hanging about 9" off the top of the tank. I also have a glass lid so I feel like that kinda dims the par my coral are getting a bit. I have hairy mushrooms and zoas at the same level already that are doing very well. The utter chaos has put off 5 heads in the last roughly 2 months. My question is, given the coral at the same level are already doing fine with it, would it be okay to move my eu/fimbriaphyllia up there? The spot I want to put the hammer is kind of darker since it's a little bit under the hinge of the lid. The hammer and torch would not be touching ofc.

Lower third to mid tank has been my sweet spot under moderate light and water flow
