What corals should i keep?
n00b here with a newly started 14g biocube, all stock equipment. the tank is up and running for a few days now with 12lbs LR, and a bag of LS. the stock lighting only comes with 2 24w PC bulbs.
id like some advice on what corals i should be looking to keep with the equipment i have. im not looking to modify anything, but wouldnt mind adding a powerhead if neccessary. what would u all recommend that looks good, but is suitable for the lighting and size of tank i have, and of course for n00b skills? |

Green Star Polyps - Easy, low light and pretty cool looking (try to find the (neon green variety)
Also mushrooms look nice. |

The Green star polyps look awesome, ill definetly check that out.
Howbout Zoa's or Duncans? When would u all recommend i start adding livestock? id like to get some cleanup crew in there and am pretty anxious to starting growing in some coral. Any comments on using biospira? |

You could do some zoa's most likely. I would stick to low light corals. I wouldn't add livestock until after your tank cycles. That can take a few weeks easy. Some soft corals and things such as green star polyps can be forgiving, so you could start with something like that. But again don't add anything until your ammonia is staying at 0. You should make sure you don't have any nitrites as well. I recommend patience. I've never used biospira, so I can't comment on that.
