The types of corals you can have depend on your lighting....so what type of fixture do you have for the tank?

You should be good to try out most soft corals and large polyp stony corals. This, of course, is only true if you have zero ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and phosphates. Also do make sure that your calcium is around 400, and that your pH and KH are at proper values as well.

Good first corals include any mushrooms, zoanthids, and green star polyps. Toadstool and finger leathers are good starter corals as well.
