I have some torch coral. Send me a PM if you are interested. Trades preferred or $5/head. I may be able to frag some of my candycanes too, I will check.

Hey I got a big piece of rock filled with zoas for free about half a week ago. I can give you half that way I still get to keep some and well I guess its always good to give back to RC. I'm at Addison and Laramie let me PM me if you want any.

no sps for you, not even worth trying with only a 70 viper light, i tried a green slimer and could not get any growth out of it. you need at least 150w mh for sps in a nano. not sure about some lps but i would stick to softies and some lps if i were you, didn't mean to burst your bubble.

A monti digitata might be all right. Hydnaphora is a semi SPS that could grow and thrive w/70W mh.

Beyond that, I would say good luck. Stranger things have happened. There are a ton of very colorful zoas, rics and acans out there that would look great in your tank.

Question Also looking for coral for my new nano

I am also looking for some coral for my new 12 gallon nano (48W dual spectrum lighting). Preferably something like in the links below (a soft purple coral). Other suggestions are welcome - I have done freshwater for 12 years but this is my first go at reefing.

He should be able to keep SPS in there. I have a 12G Aquapod with a 70W HQI and I have a few birdsnest frags I got from Yznhmr and a green slimer frag that have grown really fast.
