Coral that loves high flow

Dear reefers, I just installed a tunze wave box in my 4 ft tank. There happens to be some space just in front of the box. Can I ask which type of coral can take direct water flow? I had to move my gonios which occupied that space previously. I'm open to sps, Lps or softies. Tks!

Branching Acros will love that water flow..

Or Montiporas will be a good choice too!

But for Montiporas, choose those which are ridged and thick, these prefer water flow..

DO NOT get the plating kind - they are smooth and prefer gentle flow...

Hope that helps :)

Cheers,

Trying to minimise equipment as much as possible.

Would love to make new friends in the reefing community - PM me!

Thanks Copepod. I'd placed a plating monti near the flow and it isn't doing well. Maybe I need to shift it to a lower flow area.

In think it will not be a good idea to have anything place right in front of the wavebox exit...

The constant and direct flow causes the tissue to tear off in my opinion...
