Coral Health and Happiness

Hello All,

I recently purchased two small frags. One has 5 zoas on it, the other has two mushrooms on it.

I put them in the tank and the zoas open and close a lot during the day and evening. The mushrooms are colorful but I have no idea if any of them are happy and or placed right. I have read many sources, and none agree. When I put the mushrooms on a rock on the sandbed, the peppermint shrimps went right to work, but it looked like they were eating them - not cleaning them. So I moved the mushrooms and the shrimp have not bothered them. I bought the frags 3 days ago.

Any tips for health and happiness, placement, etc. would be great.

They share my 94 gallon corner bow front with:
6 peppermint shrimp
2 cleaner shrimp
2 ocellaris clowns
3 blue/green chromis
2 ignitus anthias

3 kenya trees
1 neon green sinularia
1 neon blue pineapple (a glorified kenya tree)
1 GSP colony
2 tiny GSP frags that I fragged.

about 45 pounds of LR.

Pics are attached (the entire tank front view)
And on the right you'll see the white rock with the green mushrooms about half way up the tank. Close-up included.
In the middle you'll see a white frag plug with the 5 zoas. Close up included.
