Who Gives A Fish Forums

Thanks for the advice, everyone. I'll try mid-tank and keep an eye on the flow. Appreciate the help!

Just got a new Brain Coral and I'm not sure where to put it in my 75-gallon tank. I've got moderate flow and T5 lighting. Any tips on placement to keep it happy?

You might be able to make do in a small space, but that doesn't mean it's ideal.

Not much help here, sorry.

I've had fish tanks for nearly 16 years now, and I've never had a fish jump out - that's a pretty good track record if I do say so myself. But, after my divorce, my reef tank ended up at my parents' place while I get settled into my new home. And let me tell you, my dad's had a bit of a fish-jumping ...
