    Just brought home a Galaxia coral and an "i don't know coral"(pics on the way).
    Just wanted to know the best spot for the Galaxia. High on the rocks by the MH's or midway down?

    Just be careful with the placement with ther corals and future corals as Galaxae corals have long sweeper tentacles and are very potent!!!

    I put it towards the bottom of the tank since in the store it was under T5's and i've got the MH's. I figured i'd ween it towards the light to aclimate. Here's a pic.
