6.8 gallon coral stocking ideas

[Galasss]

Hey everyone,
I’m fairly new to coral keeping so I was hoping to get some recommendations on what the best corals are for my tank.I’ll attach a picture below so that you can see what I’m working with. I want this to be an easy softy tank but would be open adding some LPS. Thanks in advance!
Lighting:
Hipagero aquaknight
Stock:
2 juvenile clowns, GSP, Kenya tree, toadstool, mix of zoas and palys
Salinity: 1.025 temp: 77 ammonia: 0 nitrite: 0 nitrate: 10 ph 8.2 don’t have a test kit for calcium magnesium etc.

You may consider removing the GSP from the main rock work, once it becomes happy, it will cover everything, and is hard to remove from rock. It will also run over most other corals, killing them. Put it on an “island rock” or back glass where it can be easily moved or pruned, aka, GSP frags.
Below was a frag a year ago, now 12” x 6”.
Will peel off glass easily

As for new additions, how about a scolly, expensive but super coral and no special care requirements.

Thanks for the advice, I’ll look into scoly’s. The GSP is on a separate rock, it just looks like on the main rock work because of the perspective. That GSP looks great! I’m going to eventually also put some on the back wall

Specific mushroom that doesn’t split often, that often means expensive mushrooms.

few variety of zoas with vivid color that doesn’t grow as fast and can probably help you trade your way up for new corals such as GMK or LSOH

with that said, I have a 3G mushroom/zoa tank
