Question about Coral Placement

[justthewife]

I recently added a new Devils Hand frag and because of the rock its on I had to place it where it would fit. Which was right where I had recently placed my Yellow Fiji Toadstool. My question is can a place the small fiji toadstool near or in between a cabbage coral and the devils hand or am I asking for trouble chemically? I had to put the fiji back on the bottom of the tank where it used to be to fit the new rock and frag (which is a pretty good size frag) and the Fiji is not happy again.

fiji requires lot of light so place it high in the tank... a devilhand can be placed everywhere without problems but it becomes a very large coral.

my Fiji is right in the middle of the tank under my led unit... it is about 18" under the unit and I do plan on raising it... and mounting it higher... my toadstool which at one point was over 12" when expanded has been cut down to about 6" in diameter... but that also is as close to the light as possible.. I just increased the blue to 75% and run my whites at maybe 25%.. reefbreeders unit. my cabbage leather is off on the side receiving lesser light.. I have 2 different devils hand a long and short polyped .. they are also more off in the less light areas.. I would also say all of my leathers are in mid-high/high flow areas of the tank
