needing opinions on stock

Hi all you were so helpful last time. Im really trying to plan out my tank before i start so i know where i want to go. I have a list of a few things and was needing an opinion on because i get so many conflicting information from online and pet stores.

I have a 12 gal jbj nano cube. Im starting a little small so i know i can take care of it. I want a few corals and other things here is my list so far..

Elegance coral blue tip
Acropora purple
Blue bubble coral
Blue xenia
purple feather gorgonian
purple sea plum
Carnation coral red

For invertabraes
Bright red coco worm
Flame scallop
red tree sponge
red star
maybe a blue maximas clam

For fish i want 2 still looking for them..

Is this to much for my small tank or would it work together some how. Righjt now its stock lighting until i can figure out better lighting for it and how to change it....Thanks in advance

 

What lighting is it exactly? Stock is a broad term, the JBJ's can be ordered with a couple of different types.
For the coral, most look good. You might not be able to keep some of them depending on the lighting. Tank is too smal for a gorgonian.
Your tank is too small for a coco/feather duster. There is not going to be enough food in the water column. Skip the flame scallop, they all starve to death and probably would be best left in the sea. And what exactly do you mean by a red star? What type of star specifically? If its a linkia I would skip that as well, they need at least a 120 for even a slight chance.
The maxima's maybe, if you have the halide lighting. If not then no. They also get very big, and suck up a lot of calcium, so that's something to consider.

 

Just about everything you listed is NOT for beginners, and most expert's have a hard time keeping them. I would rethink your list, what kind of lighting come's with it? FYI most of the things you listed are much better off in the ocean.

 

I was thinking the same thing... those are mostly corals I'm not ready to take on myself in my 55 with T5's.

 

Regrettably you do have a very expert taste. I would start out with some easier corals like leathers, zoanthids, mushrooms, GSP, and maybe a couple LPS. Again, for any coco worm or featherduster the tank is too small. Same with the starfish. For fish look into gobies. You could keep 2-3 nano gobies in there. A lot of people like clown gobies.

 

ok thanks all. Yes that is my problem everything i like i dont seem to be able to keep LOL... It is an expert taste but some sites i read info on said some of these can be for beginners so i just get more confused.

The list isnt set in stone im just looking for ideas and im hoping if i do ok with the nano cube in 6 months i have a 75 gallon coming...Im just trying to get some help on some of what i can do before i start anything and buy stuff.

 

...yet!

 

yes yet =) almost thought of giving up cant find any good websites so far for beginners corals

Pretty much anything under polyps, soft corals, and/or mushrooms.

After those, I moved on to LPS as they are the next easiest IMO.
