placing corals in groups in the tank

[maroun.c]

Hi, Has anyone placed their corals in groups in their tank:
Such as an area with muchrooms, another with Zoos, GSP, LPS....
Any pics would be great

I have heard of people doing this to take advantage of lighting differences in different zones.

i try to keep my rics/yumas together, also i group up my acans and have a few different groups of zoos. I think it adds to the display because you can see the contrast in colors in the species of coral.

I have my tank set up that way. Softies are on one end, stoneys on the other with zoas , LPS, and acros grouped together within each zone. The aquascape is set up "peninsula" style so none of the rocks touch the walls. This esentially gives me the ability to make the two long viewing windows separate zones as well. I need to get some isolated pics of the stoney guys up top on their end as well as the other side of the tanks, but here's a couple pics from a few months back. I've done some rearranging since then but you can get the idea:
