High flow LPS.

I'm trying to stick with the LPS theme on my 20g. I have one area that gets relativly strong flow. It's right in the top middle so I don't like the empty look there. None of my LPS corals would be happy there. Anyone have any good suggestions?

Why don't you add some zoanthids there i know it's not LPS but they like high flow.

galaxia likes high flow, though it is aggressive (sweepers)

Galaxia sounds like a good possibility. I do like zoa's, but I have a 75g for softies and have decided to limit this tank to LPS.

My Pagoda Cup corals seem to like moderate to high flow.

Pagoda would be interesting, I was looking at some at my local LFS, but they wanted $150 for a 4" piece - seems just a bit steep.

Online is cheaper for sure - maybe I'll have to wait until I have a bigger order. Echinopora mamilformis and most cyphestreas look interesting, but I don't know much about them. Online I can only find small frags, know of any good vendors?
