coral suggestions.

[PokeFish]

hello. I am in need of some coral suggestions. Most of the corals I bought were under blue lighting, and my system is mostly white. This led to my tank being overrun with red/pinkish corals.
Any suggestions for corals that are purple/green/blue/anything other than redish? thanks

You're running mainly white lights?

You are asking for algae problems…most folks run the exact opposite..mine ai’s are mostly blue and uv with 9% white

That's gonna lead to algae problems. How old is your tank?

hahaha i wish... i have literally 0 algae even tho i introduce hair algae weekly... i just have too many hitchhikers from my live rock. (crabs, snails, limpets,etc) they begin going after my coral if I don't give them algae
