I prefer to do zones with my tank. The upper middle zone is where most of my flow is concentrated so that is where I focus my MH and place my SPS. Around the sides and low in the sandbed the flow is more mild and there are shaded areas so that is where the LPS go. I will personally never put any kind of mushroom into a mixed reef again, in time they have a way of taking over and can inflict a powerful sting on other corals.
LPS cant be stocked as densely as SPS as well so keep that in mind. Because they can inflate and send out sweeper tentacles some need up to a few inches between them and neighboring colonies.
