Ok, there was a sale and I was unsupervised... So I have 9 corals arriving this week and am not sure where to put everyone. I currently have 2 discosoma mushrooms and a Kenya tree which seem happy, plus macro algae which is growing like crazy. I picked all beginner and mostly photosynthetic corals and most are soft although a few are lps. This is what I've come up with so far. The top, right rock is being left empty for a future nem. I was thinking maybe the cloves on the vertical part of the left rock work? I'm not sure where to put the gorgonian or the cespitularia or the candy cane...

Unsolicited advice, but I would consider ripping that caulerpa out asap. I had a little sprig that was under control until one day it got real happy and now it's attatched to all my rock. I pull them out and try to pick it off, but any little bit that stays and it immediately begins growing out of control again.

It's a cool macro algae until it isn't.
