    i think all those fish are reef safe. as for coral, maybe some zoanthids, kenya tree, yellow polyps, colt coral, mushrooms, trumpet coral, xenia, candy cane coral (these are suggestions)

    Hahaha...Yeah, sorry...ILL PUT IT IN HUGE DETAIL!!!

    Zoas
    button polyps
    acans
    frogspawns
    torches
    blastos
    duncans

    Zoas are your best bet and button polyps, they are the easiest out of those and you can find amazing colors.

    a new person can keep anything...if they really research it before buying.
    Should give this a read.

    awsome :) thanks guys :) im very excited. Im thinking maybe doing the pinkbar goby, even though they get to be 4in, instead of a weeler shrimp goby. and maybe instead of a firefish too. I really like the pinkbar. what do you all think?

    ok, heres the plan.

    14 gallon biocube aquarium

    Zoanthid Coral
    Button Polyp Coral
    Frogspawn Coral
    Bubble Coral
    Torch Coral
    Xenia Coral

    2 Clowns
    1 yellow stripe clingfish
    1 pinkbar goby
    1 shrimp

    14 pounds live rock

    Sound good?

    Also, would a serpent star fit? It seems like they would get to big but I dont know about stars.

    I think thats it :) last question. Atleast until I go out and actually put the thing together :) thanks so much guys
