Fluval Evo 13.5 Coral suggestions

[DKaiser1189]

I’m setting up an Evo reef. It’s my first reef. I’ll have a shallow sand bed with live sand likely the Caribbean aragalive in bimini pink and obviously live rock. I know I want zoas and GSP. Could I pull off Euphyllia species, Duncan’s, or other LPS in a tank like this? Suggestions please.

I would stay away from euphyllia's unless you want to section off half of the tank for a single coral, they have a nasty sting that can kill other corals.

With the stock lighting, GSP would probably be okay , you could also do other soft corals, mushrooms, and maybe some acans towards the top of the aquascape. Duncans may also do well towards the top closer to the light. Zoas would need to be towards the top as well.

Hey, I've got a 14G nano currently with Euphillia, Acan, alveopora, clam, candy cane, fungia. No problems to report.
