Default How much coral is too much coral

My nieces want me to get more coral but I feel my tank is at its maximum as it is a 33 gallon with 7 fish and 9 types of coral all of which are fairly large. How much coral is too much coral?

Set up another tank for them, depending on age have them contribute with maintenance and helping out! Cool that they are so interested, see if you can hook them on the hobby by making something their own. Helps them learn the value of money, pride of success and how challenging the hobby can be!

I wish I could but limited with space and the ever present need for that evil money.

I have like 40 different corals in my 20 gallon. I am adding about another 10 at the beginning of next month. So for now, I can say double the value of your gallons :P
