Hello , I am looking for some corals can grow in the shade
Cause I have lots of space under the rock which I need to full
With different corals , so any recommendations ??
 
NPS corals like Suns & dendros are beautiful & might be the ticket if you are committed to feeding them regularly. Tube anemones are another great choice as no light is needed but you should have a sand bed of several inches.

Many LPS corals may work. Chalices, candy canes, acan lords, many favias & others do well in very low, indirect light. But they can't handle total dark shade.
 
I don't thing I can handle the nps coral cause am not available all the time to feed them
Thanks for ur recommendations acan and chalice are good choice I will go with them
What you think about the open brain ??
 
Open Brains are low light and may work under a ledge. Make sure you have some indirect light. These corals are photosynthetic of course and can't deal with deep shade. So be sure to monitor then carefully when initially placed and make sure they're happy with the choice.
