    My new Ricordea Coral is not on a frag and keeps turning upside down, and twice has slipped into different holes in my rocks. I had to use my turkey baster to flush it out. Is this normal?

    Coral placement

    I have 29 g Biocube, and I have stock lights. I want to know what corals I can place on my upper live rock. If I need better lighting, I can afford more lighting, but what lights can I add to the spots in the Coralife lid, without changing the light kit? I am not handy that way. Thanks!
