Coral Placement Advice

[josh515025]

Hello everybody, so I just purchased a BRS/WWC LPS/Softie bundle which comes with a Blue Sympodium, Cyclops Galaxea, Watermelon Zoa, Rainbow Ricordea and Shaggy Pipe Organ frags.
Will arrive Wednesday!

Just looking for some simple suggestions on placement! Only other coral is green toadstool mushroom. I have three islands as my aquascape (in pics).

keep the Galaxea far away from the other corals.......they have ridiculous sweeper tentacles.

Consider renting out a PAR meter from your LFS. they will help tremendous on placement.

Ill look into renting a meter. have Curent Orbit Dual IC Pro LEDs, they have a chart on their website showing how much PAR you get at different heights in water with two strips. So I’ll probably go off of that first. Though I guess I won’t know how accurate it is until I get a hold of a PAR meter.

Would Galaxea be fine on top of one the islands? Or can it’s tentacles sting other corals under it as well?
