My next move...

[JFleur]

So im very new to reefing (about 2 months in) and just looking for some experienced direction.
I have a biocube 32 with a few upgrades (ask if you want/need to know). I have 7 different coral frags in there. A zoa colony (exact kind the name escapes me), a pulsating xania, a nuclear ???(looks like a fly trap), a torch, a green star ??? (Green curly tentacles with a yellow dot in center, looks like a bush), some type of flat mushroom, and a small acan colony. I apologize for not knowing the actual names... names and numbers have never been a strong suit for me. I will attach pictures for reference.
I just sold 2 clowns and a nem tonight and will be getting a Red Mandarin goby and a Royal Gramma tues, tho they will be in a QT for the next 2-4 weeks...

So to my question.... can i add more coral frags while the fish are in QT? If so, what would be a good next few corals? Im open to any and all suggestions, and pics of what your tank looks like would help greatly. Or if i should just not do anything, that would be fine too.
TIA

Your picture is a green star polyp. I vote to wait on more coral sounds like you have some, let them grow. Your green star polyp (GSP) will grow quick, your pulsing xania will too. Give it some time my friend.

Nuclear paly and green star polyps. A mandarin will quickly decimate your pod population in that size tank. You could seed pods frequently, but that can get rather expensive. Just some food for thought. You can certainly add more corals, just keep in mind placement as some of the corals you already have are known to grow to pest proportions.

Add pods while adding coral and add just a couple, not few . In other words stock slowly and assure all continue to do well Before adding more.
As you add fish and coral remember water quality And importance of.

You have received some great advice already, especially about taking it slow. I know your frags are small (now) but you have a lot for only being up and running for 2 months. Some tanks take longer than that to fully cycle.
Blenny's are awesome fish but as mentioned are notoriously picky to feed, you must be willing to keep pods available for it. Good luck.
