  best coral for shallowish 210 liter cube

  Posted: September 20th, 2010, 12:23am CDT by Johan van Aardt

  hi guys
  
  so looking at my one tank ive been slacking on finishing i was thinking, what would be the best corals for this tank?
  
  it is 700long * 600wide * 500 high
  
  first i wanted to go full sps with some LPS on the sand but ive been a bit slack in the desighn of how to do the hectic filtration for a full blown sps tank running ULNS so looking at it today i was thinking of doing the full tank LPS instead with a few plating montis.
  
  so i would like all you guys imput.
  
  BTW softies are out of the question because they are for my other tank.
  
  i would also like to explain this first.....
  
  I love the sps look but i worked out the cost of the setup, filtration, flow etc and figured it will be just too much money especially for someone like me that just started working.
  
  I was hoping going LPS will allow me to save somewhat on the setup and give me a bit more freedom to lack on husbandry when i dont have time.
