As the title states, I am going to relocate and remove some items. See picture below. I have some rocks that have a lot of Paly's and I am looking to remove them from my tank. I would like to add some dry rock in their place for more SPS real estate. I am thinking about relocating the two birds nest circled to the back of the rock work. While I love the birdnest, they are starting to take over a lot of space very quickly. I have some more high end pieces that I would like to put in their place.

What do you all think?

I would start curing your rocks now so theyll be ready. Dont want them leaching into the tank and causing problems.
And yes to the extra real estate and some cash or store credit for the corals!

That is going on right now. I have a storage bin of rocks that have been curing for almost a year. I tested the water in the curing bin and it had over .90 PO4. I took out about 5 good pieces and moved them to a different bin with a much stronger pump and some Phosguard. Hopefully, I can get the PO4 down quickly.

I removed one birdsnest already and will work on the next one. I have already filled up my frag tank. :-). I am looking at getting a bigger tank. SMH....Reef Problems.
 
Ok, so I have a new plan now. I removed the one birdsnest and this is what I am thinking now. I am going to remove the entire center structure to open everything up. This will allow me to add a couple of base rocks in the middle and I will have areas to mount corals on the right, left, and center rocks. Also, I am going to remove everything circled on the left and just add a standard rock for mounting purposes.
