Beginner LPS Corals?

[Armani Garcia]

Hi I’m new to the hobby and have no coral yet, I am planning on getting a hammer coral though, what are some tips to keeping one, when can I get one, how much are they? Thanks!

Also any other corals that are beginner friendly, preferably colorful and well priced

I think acans are your best bet. They are beautiful, affordable, easy to care for, easy to feed, and tolerate imperfect water conditions.

Thank you! What and how do they eat?

They have large "mouths" and will consume just about anything: flakes, pellets, frozen, whatever lands on them.
