New SPS and Ricordia, where to place

I went to WWC (awesome) and got some SPS (ORA Birdsnest and Caps) and some ricordia. I have another birds nest, a frogspown, some mushrooms and zoa. Lighting is 250w XM 10000K MH supplemented with PC actinic.
1)I was looking for suggestion for the placement level for the new items in the tank (IE Caps on the Bottom or Top of tank).
2)Is there anything new that should not be placed near anything old (IE no ricordia near mushrooms.
Thanks

I would start everything out low to get acclimated to your lights... just leave some space between corals so they can grow and not irritate the others. Unless you have a really deep tank you can keep those anywhere in the water column -- higher up for now might "burn" them until they get used to the lighting.

I was thinging the cap down low and the birdsnest a little high since as the caps grow they tend to shad below. Also, I know thaty ricordia can kill sps but what about regulat shrooms. Will they kill sps?
