ricordiasssss. dont ask, im in some fad right now. LOL back in the day, kenias and most of the lps corals were the expensive stuff if i remember right. everytime i went to an lfs those were the most expensive. after buying ricordias today, i thought to my self, wow i paid 20 a head for these two when i coulda got a decent sized bubble for 30. when i had my 55g, a pearl bubble was running 70$ locally

Get some star polyps!! Those are good growers and really low maintenance... when they grow, you can frag them off and trade them very easily!

I don't know anything about brain coral... but IMHO, I would wait on that....
I think? they're kind of sensitive and also because they are usually pretty stationary and because they are so open and flat.... I think that would be a perfect place from some cyano accumulation...
Since you have recently had some, and other algae blooms, I would wait...
plus brains are expensive and you don't want to lose one after paying soooo much.
Other the other hand... my GSPs have held nicely through this cyano outbreak in my tank... and they are pretty cheap especially for how fast they grow.... lol
