Acro for beginner?

[velvetelvis]

What acro would you recommend to someone who has a couple years experience under their belt, has had success with M. digitata, and is looking at maybe acquiring an easy acro? I have the opportunity to get a frag of green slimer from another hobbyist, or some blue and pink millepora from a LFS (this colony is maricultured, but has been in captivity for a while).

My tank is a 34G Solana with 150W/14K MH lighting plus actinics, a Sapphire nano-skimmer, and 2 MP10 powerheads. I'd be keeping the acro with a colony of orange digitata and a small colony of Turbinaria. Thanks!

i would go with the green slimer. that was one of my first sps and it was pretty hardy for me. im actually going to put some in my new setup just because i like it.

Any stag is a good choice, as well as many of the acropora tenuis species.

Green slimmer would be good for you

2 years experience and the set up you have, you can go with almost anything. I would start with a couple small frags that dont break the bank and see how they do.

Make sure you are in good control of nitrates, phosphates, ca, alk, mg, sg and temp.

tenius and validas have always been not that particular of conditions and fast growers for me.
