I dont see a whole heck of a lot of room in there to add any SPS...

You could try gluing a monti cap up against the glass, but as it gets bigger it might block out the light to the items below.

I think it looks good the way it is man. Just leave it.

Might want to head over to the SPS forum and read some of the stickies. There's high lighting and high flow requirements to think about, plus a greater need for stability of Alk/Ca/Mg. Most successful SPS tanks tend to lean towards lower nitrate/phosphate levels, but not all. Mixed reefs are challenging because the different corals have such different needs. Correct coral placement will be really important.

I would start with montipora sp. and see how that goes before moving on.
