I wanna ask whats the best positioning for my soon to be placed corals and some macroalgae

Tank setup:

*10G

*1 warty frog fish

*canister filter (mechanical, chemical, carbon)

*Water flow is variable so i can just change the current

*RO water already

I was planning to add:

*pulsing xenia/kenya tree will be placed behind rock to not over populate

*red/purple/ or any dark colored zoan

*and some macroalgae not sure what other type to add since i am still looking for red,pink,purple or dark colored type to match the rock and theme

Don't mind the middle rock in front i just did not take it out since my warty likes that rock and mostly stays on that rock that was from his old rock formation before deciding to add corals and adding bigger rocks

Setup rating?

How much would u guys give in a total of 10?

(That one coral on the highest is birdnest sps coral)

(Btw, any suggestion to improve my tank based on the parameters and equipment I updated today?)

Cycle complete on the experiment! Added CUC and my first ever corals last night!! Also upgraded water flow from the nano internal skimmer to Fluval HOB- I didn’t like the space the skimmer was taking up and the HOB gives me more flexibility with carbon filtration option. Upgrade lighting arriving tomorrow!

Guys I need some help on where I should put my corals I’m not the best at placement and I need to make sure these places will be comfortable for my corals . Current setup and I think it’s suitable LMk (I know bubble coral is stressed and deflated I’m currently working on to help it inflate)

So couple weeks ago I had to move my trumpet coral bc my RFA smothered it. It’s finally showing signs of coming back 🙌

My favia coral however, went from vibrant and thriving to suddenly turning brown. I had a lot go on in that time… new wave maker that I was fine tuning placement, treating Cyo-Control for a relentless Cyano outbreak… any ideas why it might have suddenly lost its color?
