Best corals for reef safe with caution fish

[fishski13]

I would like to get a few reef safe with caution fish for my upgraded tank, however would like to add some corals to provide some color and movement in my tank. What would be the best corals to put into the tank that would be the least affected by such fish and pose the smallest threat of being nibbled out and killed. I have read many people saying leathers and softies, any specific one or other corals?

This isn’t coral, but if you don’t own any urchins, some branching and plating coralline algae could be a nice alternative (I think @Tigahboy once called this “poor man’s SPS):

I've been thinking about doing this with rock flower anemones and coraline algae.

Maybe it’s just me but never had one eat my gonis

Nippy fish always seem to like my acans. I would stay away from fleshy LPS.

This has also been my experience. I have a beautiful gold flake angel but can’t keep acans, cynarina, acanthophyllia - but sps and lps that aren’t fleshy (chalice, echinata, cyphastrea,etc) as well as euphyllia/gonis and “swaying” lps are all totally fine.

Mushrooms , Hammers & rock anemones are all that my regals will leave alone. Killed torch and some SPS

What type of fish are we talking about?

This depends greatly on the fish

I’ve got a tank with quite a few caution fish. Toadstool and GSP are the only things they won’t eat.
