High flow/lighting

[crocogator106]

Looking for suggestions for something to put higher up in the tank with higher flow and light. It dosent have to be an LPS but it does need to be something fairly easy to take care of.

I would look into some of the easier to keep SPS corals. I don't know of any LPS that likes those conditions. Many of the leathers do though. I have a Pavona coral in my high light and high flow area and it's doing fantastic. You can do birdsnest, montipora, pocilipora to name a few. They don't need the near pristine water conditions that the harder Acropora's do. There are also some acro's that can do fine in the situation that you have for them.

How about a Favia coral? As long as you move it up slowly, these can adapt to high lighting and flow IME.

All good suggestions thanks guys! I've seen some great looking Favia corals. I think a Birdsnest might be great as well.
