New Corals... What to put and where to put it

[sb__78]

Hi I am new to SW and have a small 15g Nano.
3 hermits
2 turbo snails
3 nasarius

Duncans, xenia, shroom, zoas, torch.

I am unsure what to get next. I fancy blasto and war coral but after advice on what would be best suited.

Ammonia/Nitrite/Nitrate 0
Phosphate 0.01
Sal 1.024
Alk 9.5
Calcium 420-450

Don't currently test for magnesium.

Kalk is added with top off

My lights have only been on for a half hour

I would put Torch close to bottom, you could do zoas on bottom or middle. Xenia stay on top of it so it doesn’t take over.

Xenia on a separate rock for that reason. Why would you move torch lower?

That separate rock would make a nice hammer/frogspawn or acan garden.

Thanks!! I've been looking at acan and blastos.

Thanks!! I've been looking at acan and blastos.

Just got my first acan. So far so good, I’m feeling like the care level was a little overblown. It’s instantly my favorite and can’t wait to grab another!
