can only comment on what I got really Harry but I can;t praise the Trumpet corals enough, they seem pretty cheap and common and are so colourful when they expand. Take a look at mine in my pics

I know it gets a bad rep but xenia pulse looks amazing to me and really adds to the reef effect and cheap and easy again

how bout some more of the colourful mushrooms? I;ve really got into them andwant more

 

[Harry1996]

thanks i will add them to my list anyone else

[Harry1996]

what about brime shrimp? and do you feed them twice a week?

 

[seffieuk]

Brine shrimp have very little nutritional value, so better mysis

[Harry1996]

new list for corals.
1 purple plate frag
1 hammer frag
1 frogspawn frag
1 brain lobo frag
1 green plating montipora
1 trumpet frag
1 pom pom xenia
1 purple mushroom frag

feeding once or twice a week is more than adequate.

 

[Harry1996]

Look into acans...they grow slow but are hardy, colorful and relatively peaceful...and they're usually pretty cheap if you get them as frags.
