Any advice from folks on some good beginner soft corals to try out? 45 gallon tank, Pacifica LED 108watt lights, live rock, CUC and a pair of clowns are the existing inhabitants. Tank running for about 6 weeks - no issues yet.

Would like to start with some hardy corals that will grow and not be too picky - in other words, some Confidence Builder Corals. :)

Thanks!
 
Kenya trees would be good. Just be sure when you see it frag itself, you either pull that or mount it somewhere. There's others you might enjoy as well but will be harder to keep an eye on from it spreading to epic levels. (star polyps, zoa's, etc)
 
Pretty much all softies are easy, though do seem to be picky and deplete quickly if not satisfied. ZOA's, mushrooms, toadstools are nice and easy yet bring color and some movement. Zoa gardens are always cool.
 
Toadstools are temperamental but just because they look sad doesn't mean they are sick...that would not be a confidence builder because you will worry about it often.
