First Coral Question

[swimfest]

I have a 240 gallon tank that i am wanting to be a reef. Currently i have a dussemiere, sailfin, and 3 cardinals in there. I know that mushrooms and zoos are probably the hardiest, and other good corals to start out with?

 

[swimfest]

sorry and do you know of any other good corals to start with?

depends on lighting...what type do you have...leathers and colts usually work out great...

i have 3 400 watt pendents with 20k bulbs

Well you have the light your need....Colt corals, Leathers(toadstool & finger), GSP(green star polyps), zoanthids, mushrooms, and if you are feeling confident plate corals, bubble corals, pagodas, and some hardier forms of xenia...

yeah i am a risk taker haha but hate to loose stuff so ill probably stick to some nice zoos. really want a monti cap but not sure when the time is right.

Tank needs to mature before you go SPS...also you need a little more experience if this is your first tank...
