R stands for live rock, there will be two hills, one will be taller than the other, the taller one will have the lps coral(s) (frogspawn) where it is closest to the light, below the lps near the bottom will be some macro algae. The other hill will be shorter, that will contain the softies, the button polyps at the top, and the mushrooms at the bottom.
The reason for all this is that i heard during the night when frogspawn opens up and stretches the tentacles, it might sting other corals. Therefor i give the frogspawn a mountain to itself (besides the algae) so it can stretch hopefully without problems. It will also be on the taller mountain closer to the light. The other mountain will be shorter and therefor wont have much light. That is where i will put the softies, hopefully out of reach of the frogspawn. The powerhead will be above the smaller hill therefor not giving any close direct flow of water to any coral yet still a good flow. Another filter will be near the bottom where the macro algae is, that will circulate the water. Skimmer will probably somewhere near the larger hill. Sound good to anyone?
