So, I have a small Griessingeri goby and have been looking into a LPS/Inverts heavy tank as my 4’ tank can’t have many fleshy LPS, Softies or inverts (Dang you Copperband and wrasses). My question is, what coral/inverts do I avoid? And what inverts/coral can I own? I’m aware the Elegance corals will potentially eat fish, same with anemones.
Also, my other question is what’s a Fleshy LPS? I hear the term used a lot but never know what coral falls under it.
Some of the coral I quite like involves:
- Micromussa/Acanthistrea
- Burning ember/Jack O Lantern Leptoseris
- Favia/Favites/Goniastrea
- Goniopora/Alveopora
- Burning ember leptastrea
- Chalices
- Frogspawn/Octospawn/Hammers
- Willow Tree Leathers
My tank size is a 18”x15”x18” (Red Sea Max Nano). I’d like some of the flowing movement, aswell as some height that many SPS can grow and bring.
