What corals can go in FOWLR

Fish list? Lighting?

I have had limited success with keeping mushrooms in a FOWLR with triggers and puffers....but anything with fine pollyps wouldn't stand a chance.

My Picasso ignores the mushrooms,toadstool, LTA , and GSP in my mixed reef.

I can suggest a bunch of things, but the answer to the lighting question is pretty important !

We'll just assume lighting is good enough for easy SPS. (250 watts)

Just to clarify, I don't have a FOWLR tank......yet. And if I did I would want fish like Morish idols, queen and/or emperor angels, clown triggers, orange spotted rabbitfish and maybe one of the few larger wrasses, just to name a few.

This thread is really just out of curiousity, though I think it will help out a few more people.

I plan to experiment a bit with my tank down the road...I've been really working on the hardware aspect of my set-up to make this the best tank I've ever set-up (HOPE! FINGERS CROSSED!), so far it really seems to be coming together. I'll upgrade the lighting at some point in the near future (maybe T5's or some MH pendants) & then add some hardy softies & mushrooms & see where it goes.
