softy vs hard

[lucifersreef]

hello
so far i have come to the conclusion that soft corals are far easier to keep than sps and lps
is this true

For the most part. Though LPS tend to be almost as easy. But then again, both LPS and Soft Corals have their notoriously difficult specimens such as Goniopora, Cataphyllia, Dendronepthea, etc.

depends, softies basically have the same lighting, flow etc requirements (not tooooo specific). but you are forgetting that LPS PWN! frogspawn, hammers, blastos, candy canes, open brains (trachyphyllia and lobophyllia) and fungia are all relatively easy to care for, you just might wann target feed them once in a while... for me it's a must because I have a low light system. acans, enchinopora, and oxypora need more light, but you are forgetting that their colors and shapes are AMAZING compared to zoo's (I'll give zoo's their props tho, I just don't like them much myself), mushrooms, xenia, and leathers.
