Finger Leather Coral Placement
Where would be the best place in tank to put a Finger Leather Coral using a Nova Extreme Pro 6 bulb T5 lights on a standard 75g tank? Higher, Middle, or Lower.

I have finger leathers doing well close to the lights as well as middle and near the bottom. I have found them to be pretty tough corals. More important may be locating them based on flow. They don't like high flow (especially direct) but seem to acclimate to it over time.

I agree with this--flow is more of the issue as it is with most leathers.
Finger leathers are pretty good at telling you if they are happy or not---if they are happy they will be covered with their small polyps open
