Welcome to R2R!!! What kind of info are you looking for in regards to coral?

Welcome to R2R! The best direction to go to get corals is to the sponsor sale forums! lol Seriously though, do you need specific info on corals? or just a good place to get them from?

Welcome to R2R! Do you like the height of the 150? As far as coral, a lot will depend on your light. You could do a google search on your light and coral to see if anyone else has that light and what they've had success with.

Welcome! With your current lights I would look for soft corals. Toadstools, Kenya Trees, GSP, Xenia, mushrooms, zoas/palys and others.

its all personal taste in my opinion on what you like the look of. My wife loves the softies because they have a flow to them. Leathers and mushrooms are some of the easiest corals to have in a tank. zoas will grow fast and give you colonies if that's what your after. Also depends on if you want some i the sand bed or if you were trying to keep that clear.

I'm really up for anything, I do know I like zoas for sure and brain coral as well

MikeyAl · Feb 23, 2016

Zoas and palys for sure. If you want to get some nice motion in your tank s bubble coral, hammer, Xenia, or my favorite a colt coral. I also like leathers as well.
Mushrooms are also very easy and grow well- easy to propagate.
