![]() Hi, I was hoping I could crowd-source some ideas for corals to fill up the side of my aquarium that my wave maker is on. I have an MP40 cranked up to about 45% and need some corals to fill the blank spots on that side of my rock.
Lighting is no issue, I'm using 2x250W MH and 2x54W T5 and the distance from my fixture will be 36-18inches from the bottom of my tank to my light fixture. I have all types of positions on my rock available. I'd be looking for something that can tolerate high flows, almost directly in line with the head. Also something with some blue, orange, purple, green etc. Not big on the tan colored coral. Any ideas from you folks would be greatly appreciated! |

![]() I recommend getting millies, they are the only one in my experience that can take direct flow and not peel. For orange and Green colouration nothing beats Mr mvp DV sunset millie!(need high light) and Palmers has one of the best blue colouration out there as well (love light). Hint hint these frags will be a part of my prize for next contest that is coming soon!

What about Cloves? They'd be pretty good for that area too no? I've got as much chance of winning one of your contests as I do of winning the lottery ![]() |

![]() The SPS would probably do just fine for me, I'm just the type to error on the side of caution vs. potentially destroying a beautiful organism. I'll check out what you have for sale! Kien, any advice on the cloves? I do have a fair amount of real estate to cover. Last edited by Magickiwi; 09-18-2013 at 04:20 PM. |

![]() Maybe take a picture of the area you're talking about and post it? In my super high flow areas I have Green Star Polyps and birdsnests. But it sounds like you're taking SPS out of the equation ? Blue cloves would be a good idea too, but they do tend to get a bit weedy (they grow fast and can spread everywhere). This is OK for some people but the work of the devil for others. You've seen my tank :-) Anyway, I have all of the above if you want some.
