What would be good to put in this spot?

Looking for something colorful that i could put at the end of the tank, its a low flow area. there is a nice ledge toward the bottom on one of the rocks. i dont want anything that is going to come on a large rock or their wont be room for it and i wouldnt be able to get the mag-float through. thanks for your suggestions :happyfish

so its a dead area then?

Maybe some Zoo's :notsure:

How low flow of an area are we talking about? What kind of lighting are you running?

my pump is a RIO 32HF
in the view you have, the outlets are on the other end of the tank, 2 outlets and i have a sqwid.

some sort of brain/meat coral would work there nicely. low profile so it should hug the rock with its expansion. yes they go in the sand but its not a written law....

thanks bd, though i thought brains needed more light, i'm not sure though, i will need to do more research on that. and what about zoos?:notsure:

nah, youve got 6 160 vhos right? thats alot of frikin light. ive got a brain under 30 watts of regular flourescents and he does very well.

I would go for the zoos. They are IMO the easiest coral to keep...and would do fine in that area....probably even spread.

hmmm, it would be pretty cool to watch them spread up; that whole area in different colors. :jumping:
