Hi, I have just made the jump from FOWLR to REEF. I have some starter corals and needed some suggestions on where to place them with in the tank.
Tank is 130G ~30in deep. Runing T5 324w, and PC 96w, Water flow generated by two kolia PH each at 1200g/hr. I have the following corals: Hammer head, frog spawn, Monotipa,riccodia,toad stool,colt tree, button polyp.
It would be a great help if you can advise me on location in the tank (high/low/ near PH or far).
Thanks
BZ

Hammer, frogspawn can be place somone bottom to middle they like moderate flow not too much flow.

Monti near top to middle, but start them off on bottom and move it up slowly likes flow but disperse flow pattern.

Ric and toad stool, colt, button can be at bottom low flow there will be low flow anyways since its bottom of the tank.
