Need Some Advice Please
I am looking for some easy to care for SPS frags to buy at the frag swap. Can you all please help me figure out what to buy. I have some caps now and they are doing well. I want some colorful things. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks Chris

Pocillopora, some encrusting montis, cyphastrea, some acros are are reasonable bets provided you have sufficient light (which it appears you have) and some flow.

ck, the elkhorn I have is a very very easy sps to keep. it grows extremely well under my 440 vhos. I have some very nice sized frags of it. ($10 for at leat 2" and branches) Also, MOnti Cap seems to be pretty easy for me to keep ($15 for 2x2+ piece). I also have a very nice hot pink birdsnest with purple polys that has more than doubled in size since I got it at the swap last year ($15 for 2" frag). Lastly, and this one I have not advertised is the Garf Alien EYE. Got it from Fishdoc. it is a slow grower, but very different. $15 for a 1" tall frag.

Montipora digitatas are hard to beat for easy to keep colorfull SPS. I have a purple with green polyps one. Others I can think of that should be easy to find and cheap are Orange digitata (which I have as well), purple digitata and the ORA German blue polyp digi. Pavona is another that could be considered an easy to keep SPS.
