Absolutely corals. I bought a used Hamilton Sun with 2 MH and 4 T5 plus there are 3 Kessils LED canisters under the canopy For some SPS. I have one more purchase to make while waiting for it to cycle. I need to pick up a calcium reactor from BRS. And then slowly start the picking of some coral, want to go light on the fish for a while but you know how that goes I’m sure. Thank you for the kind words.

I would suggest adding just one fish to your tank because it helps cycle, for example a damselfish or clownfish. Then wait another few weeks, and then youre good to go for corals I'd say. Is this your first time keeping corals? Keep sometihng easy: duncans, zoas, mushrooms,green star polyps, some types of euphyllia(just be careful they sting), and maybe even xenia( they look soooo awesome but grow wayyy to fast.I acc almost killed mine because of low nutrients but now its growing back, it has two barely visible polyps so hopefully in a year itll be a nice lil colony.) Corals are super fun to have but trust me, HIGHLY addicting. Im not kidding thats all I think of almost every second of the day, and Im a grade 10 student who gets excellent grades., tennis and basketball player. So yeah in conlcusion good luck, have fun, always learn, and make some mistakes.

also @fishguy242 if you want an anemone add less corals in the beginning, maybe wait about 6 months after setting up tank, then add anemone. They can move around as they please and sting your corals. I wish I did that before I added corals because now i want to treat my clowns with an anemone.
