Hi peeps,

Can I have some suggestions on what coral(s) to put on the very top level of my liferocks, which is nearest to the LED light (thus very bright) but with medium-low flow.

Initially I placed a Gonia/Jewel, but shifted it somewhere as I feel there's not enough flow there.

Thanks :)

I've kept certain zoas that through proper lighting acclimation, can be kept under very high light. My mohawk zoas remains short if it's placed just 4inches away from my leds. Same area as my sps. They grow tall within a day if they happen to fall or I place them low.

Hi Evo,

I had thought zoas with long tentacle is a good sign? So I'm wrong.

Not long tentacles. I'm talking about long stem. Meaning they are stretching for light.. As for tentacle seems like only certain species have them.. Not too sure. But long tentacle species seems to prefer high flow IME
