Where to add corals

[FRANK48]

This my tank setup currently

I'm planning to eventually add 2 clownfish but also zoas and some more gsp. Where do you think would be the best place to put them for good growth. Thanks

Keep in mind with GSP that it will spread like wildfire in a tank. I would try to put it in a separate area away from the rest of your aquascape.

Zoas, those can go anywhere you would want them to go!

I've actually found Zoas to be invasive and I would make them their own islands.

you have a lot of room on the "Skirt" on that right rock. Creative gluing.. I would be cautious though as that leather is going to provide a LOT of shade.

Have you considered growing the gsp on the back wall of your aquarium? I'm not sure if people still do that but it used to be popular.

I was thinking of placing gsp around that area as my gsp has died and come back many times, luckily atm it doing real well but hasn't grown bigger yet.

I was thinking of putting some more mushrooms on the left, I want that area so have a lot of my mushrooms. You think that sounds like a good plan?

Sure. Its really your preference mostly.

THe "mandatory" coral placement rules are light and flow. So if you buy an acro that needs high light and flow you're going to want to place it higher up in the tank and closer to a powerhead, basically. You get a trachy or acantho, you want those in the bottom, protected from a lot of flow.
