    It's the grey rock in the middle to the right of the Toadstool where I have the little frag of Gracillaria. I want to put something there to have as a centerpeice. I have some yellow polyps close by but I can move them elsewhere. There is about 6-7 inches between that spot and any other coral, the toadstool on the left and the Anthelia above it. I Like Frogspawn, Torch Coral, and Hammer Coral, but I don't know if they will have enough space between them and the others if I place any of these there. You can kinda tell if you look closely at the yellow polyps that in that area the current is moderately going from left to right most of the time. If I don't have enough space there is an open spot of sand on the left side of the tank where I can place one of those. I am not sure what I would place there if none of the above are suitable:confused:

    Here is a larger one for size reference. Please excuse the diatoms, I just added a bunch of new equipment and it started going all over the place. It's receding thankfully.

    The tank is coming along pretty nicely. Not beautiful or anything yet but if you saw pics of how it used to be then you know it's slowly improving :) Only thing now is to limit myself to 1 new coral a paycheck ;D

    cant see the pictures, but if it is on the sand you could consider an acan or a scoly for that space

    Ok thanks, that would take care of the open sand space on the left. The space I'm trying to fill primarily is a rock halfway up the wall in the middle of the tank. To its left about 7 inches away is a toadstool, and above it another 8 inches away is some anthelia. Can anyone see the pictures? Maybe I uploaded them wrong
