Coral

I'm going to The LFS to find my first coral, what is the easiest coral type to keep and supports my lighting(Lighting AquaticLife T5 High Output Lights, Lighting | Pet Solutions (2) 48" T5 HO 54W 420/460 Lamps
(2) 48" T5 HO 54W 10,000K Lamps
(4) 1W Lunar LED's)
What else do I need additives, stuff in the water calcium?
Thanks

..I'd start with some ZOAS...maybe some polyps, make sure everything is all good before you invest in any of the exotic species. JMO.
Good Luck...Lets see the picture when ya get back !!

btw...your lights will do just fine for just about anything.

don't those take over all the rock?

 

frogspawns are always nice

 

Is that a soft coral

 

what do frogspawns need to thrive

 

Frogspawn is a good one. They will eat what ever the fish are eating.
I would get some test kits as well. Maybe CA, ALK, Mag.

Agreed on the test kits, you need them to keep the water parameter ideal. Frogspawns are good and just need light. You can feed them meaty foods, but it's not necessary. A bubble coral is good too, as are leathers.

 

i would go with a Pom Pom xenia, there are good looking corals and very easy to keep, i have to never lost any, and i had 2 stalks 2 weeks ago now i have 4 lol its great

 

Mushrooms are a good starter coral.
