    so i cant decide what new coral to get, i got (lps)frogspawn,torch, candy coral,trumpet,. (leathers) green toadstool, green finger, and what i think is a colt,(polyp) green zoa, yellow pal, green stars. i got a good variety of corals already so im running out of idea what to get and what will work in my tank. still got lots of room

    need some help deciding what to get, been thinking about some sps but not sure if i should mix them with these corals.
    any help would be great just throw some names of some nice corals out there that are least likely to start any coral warefare in my tank,

    should i go more lps, mores softies, or shout i mix sps.?

    duncans are always a great addition :)

    or a nice bubble I'm a bigger fan of softies and LPS than anything I just havent found a SPS I've been able to fall in love with yet

    i dont have any but from what I've read just small peices of mysis or brine, anything smaller than their mouth pretty much

    There is a LFS here that has some great duncans but he refuses to break up his collection into smaller polyp groups, I really don't know anyone that will pay $35 a head for 60 polyps of it at once
