    If you were in the area I'd give you some kenya trees as I have a veritable forest of them. :-/

    any of the mushrooms, kenya trees, zoas, xenia, star polyps, pipe organ, toadstool leather.......really any of the leathers (rasta leather, finger leather, long polyp leather) colt corals........so much

    Avoid anything that has hard skeleton (LPS, SPS) and anything that is non-photosynthetic (chili corals, sun corals, etc) Also I would stay away from yellow polyps (beginner coral but they do require more feedings)

    Most sites you look at will have a selection of "beginner coral" and will give a lot of examples. These corals will get food from the fish poo and the fish food and do not require extra supplementation of food. Plus they are hardier and more tolerable of dirty water that you will have with the type of fish you have

    Honestly one of the tanks that i am working on is just a mushroom and zoa tank. There are SOOOO many varieties of each of these corals that you will never get bored with them

    ask your local fish store if they will buy them. thats what i do, i frag a bunch than call and ask if they need them.

    Devin what state are you in? i always have xenia frags, i could give you a rock frag of them, this way you wouldn't be out any money to try it, but shipping would cost to much you have to be near by. i should have some again in a few weeks. a batch went to the fish store a few days ago
