    I have a montipora's that is blocking out the light underneath it. Looking to place a coral on sandbed in this shadowy spot. Any ideas, don't want to do mushrooms, have some sun polyps already in another spot, move my toadstools there but think that's not gonna work so will probably move that out...any ideas

    Be a good place for a tube anemone, or maybe a NPS.
