    If it's happy where it is at why move it?

    +1, unless you have sand dwellers that can knock it over. I lost my decent sized frag after my BSJ dug out underneath it and it fell into the sand bed. I would say if you do want to move it, go about halfway up, moderate to low flow and see if it likes it any better.

    Frogspawns can be a pain to make them stick in the rocks. There usually top heavy with a small branch to place in rock work. I've always found them easier to place on the top of a rock with a hole, rather than going in from the side & possibly having a fish knock him out of hole. Give him room to grow also cause at night they expand tentacles and can sting other corals badly.

    All my euphy's are on the sand bed of my tank. My LFS attaches them to pieces of flat rock so they don't get tipped over easy. My torch likes mod flow, the Hammer and Frog like low to Mod flow. I have my vortech set at like 40% and I have great PE.
