What corals start with

[Rbarb1111]

I am about to get my first coral and am wondering what are the easier ones to start with? I have a 96 watt 50/50 light on a 30 gallon tank. Where is the best place to purchase?

Thanks

Shrooms,Xenia, and zoas would be the best I think. Aqua addicts has the best that I've seen for a variety. Keep your eyes open here for frags that are for sale.

AA does have a good selection of softies, they have small frags for $15. Leathers, GSP, yellow polyps are also good for the type of lighting you have. I have an orange ric on a small piece of rock for you if you'd like to start you off.

I am a newbie too. I got a lot of help from nice people here (Thank you very much again, guys).

You can get some Xiena, and I think Zoos are easy to keep too.

It seems that water change is the best cure for a small tank if your coral are in stress.

I am also a newbie to corals also. My first 2 were green star polyps, and candy coral, which have survived ever mistake I have made.
