What are easy sps to keep and grow

All SPS are easy, so long as you can maintain stable water parameters and good lighting.

If you are wanting to know what is the best SPS to begin with, I would suggest birds nest, pocillopora, or stylophora.
 
I agree with Rob.D, In my experience the birds nest and stylo's are very tough for acros. I started my SPS tank with those and then added some others over time. I would check your current and lighting and then try and match some acros for your conditions. GOOD LUCK REEFER!

just some info to avoid misinformation. Birdsnest and Stylo's are not Acropora. Birdsnest is a Seriatopora, and Stylo, is a Stylophora.

These mentioned and also some Montipora species are quite hardy as well. And seem to withstand instability better than most Acropora.
 
I agree with the Stylo's and Pocillipora's.
