Hey everyone,
I have a waterbox 20 cube which is a mixed reef aquarium with a clownfish pair, a firefish pair, a yellow coral goby, and a flame hawkfish.

The corals I currently have are:
Alveopora, Orange Hammer, Yellow Canary Hammer, Green Hammer, Reverse Hammer, Gold Stem Hammer (Possibly?), Three Bowerbanki, 6-8 species of zoas, Red Mushroom, Teal Favia, Long Tentacle Toadstool, Short Tentacle Toadstool, War Coral, Avatar Goni, Red Goni, Pink Goni, Green Goni, GSP, Duncan, Purple and Green Candy Canes, Lobophyllia, Birds of Paradise, Milli Acro, Blue Birdsnest, Green Goblin Anacropora, Monti Cap, Sunfire Monti Frag, Cactus Pavona, Green Cabbage, Forest Fire and Bubblegum Digitata, Cyphastrea, Candy Apple Anemone (Not coral but still).

I am out of space pretty much to add new corals but I want some better corals because some corals just could be better but I’m not sure which ones. Any recommendations for corals to replace and what to replace them with? Also if possible please help with placement, I’ll attach a photo of my tank :)

Thank you!
