what coral for low light, high flow?

[fungia]

i have two spots on the rocks with very high flow but low light, i dont know what corals to put here. all the high flow corals like sps i can think of also want high light. any suggestions?

Sea fans? Gorgonians? :?

It's much easier to deal with high light, low flow...

Get a lokani or valida

On flow are we talking high volume or high speed (i.e. Tunze or conventional impellor).

If the first, would something like a Tubastrea work? Their natural habitat see huge flows.

high volume but also high speed, it is a tunze that is about a foot away so the flow is still pretty fast. the reason why there is low light is because a big acro table is growing over that area so i dont think even low light sps are okay. i tried blocking the flow with rocks and adding a blasto but it was still blown around and wouldnt open.

I'm not sure that a low light space 12" away from a Tunze is reasonably suitable for anything at all.

Might be fighting a losing battle there...

i agree.. thats too close.. coraline algae may grow well but thats about it
