I already have a reef of 20 yrs duration I would like to keep more aggressive and larger fish without the expense of lighting, supplements, high tech equipment so that is why I posted on the fish only column.

Sorry, can't find link, but I had seen thread about aquascaping for a predators tanks or FOWLR, there was an excellent-looking rank with a lot of corals skeletons, from Ebay, if memory serves. Corals' skeletons look clean and bright, because RO/DI water was used.

Fake corals are very expensive.I would go for real if you can,they look very cool.
