Default Coral placement

Hello madjellycorals and other canreef members

I just purchased a bunch of sps from madjelly and man are they great!

Just have a few questions on placement i.e. what intensity these corals prefer

my tank is a shallow 12" high and a 24"x 25" foot print. It is lit by 4 T5s 2 coral plus and 2 blue plus in 2 individual fixtures of two bulbs each. this way I can move the fixtures around to have lower light areas if need be

Ultimate bonsai - I have it higher up in the tank, but I've been reading it requires lower intensity light for the deeper purple

Purple plasma - have it higher in my tank. no clue if this is a good placement

red montipora digitata - Have it low

teal selago - mid way

beestinger stellata - have it low

Green Slimmer Bali Stag - mid-way to high

All the corals are directly under the t5 fixtures. I can move them to areas just on the outside of the T5s if need be to drop the intensity

Thanks!

Randolph
