Thanks for the suggestions! I'll start with Mushrooms and Zoanthids. Any tips on feeding or placement?


They don't need much feeding—just occasional spot feeding with reef roids or similar. Place Mushrooms in low to moderate flow, Zoanthids in moderate light. Watch for pests like bristleworms ...

Mushrooms and Zoanthids are great starter corals. They're hardy, don't need intense lighting, and can handle minor parameter swings. I've had mine in a 20-gallon with basic LEDs for over a year, and they've even spread. Just avoid placing them too close to aggressive tankmates.
