Hi,

We used to have a coral life light (PC right?) and we had great success with zoos, mushrooms and green star polyps. And they can all get super colourful. We tried an acropora but he bleached out and died pretty quick, so I'd stay away from SPS with your light. We never tried LPS with it, so can't say.

But this is all assuming you have PC lighting...

Welcome to Canreef. It is nice to see another person in town getting into the hobby. In order to help you out coral-wise we need to know what type of corals you would like. Are you more into softies, "starter corals", LPS, SPS? What type of lighting do you have?

Just a heads up, some of the fish on your list may get big enough to eat the smaller fish on your list (such as the relatively little clowns and sixline). The butterfly also might pick on corals and the puffer will eat your hermit crabs and snails if he gets the chance.

What type of starfish do you have?
