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

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?

Just got the first coral for my tank it’s a hammer coral (it just got in the tank about 2 hours ago so it’s still pretty retracted)

Is this too much flow for it?

This is my first coral in my tank. I saw it at Petco and it looked sad, with maybe only 10 polyp arms out. I felt like I had to save it, so I added it to my tank probably earlier than I should have. However, it looks like it’s doing great. All polyps are always out and it already closed up for 2 days and shed its skin. I was wondering if any of you toadstool pros out there could give some advice. Does the flow look ok? Idk what par it’s getting, but should I move it up higher on a rock to get more light? Do you feed them anything specific? Also, can anyone tell me what kind it is? The end of the polyps look bright green with blue lights. Thanks in advance.
