I dont have the access to a store where I could buy to much that is really needed for a high quality aquarium but I do have a semi reef in progress with the little money I have and I was wondering a couple things.
What are some less maintenace corals that dont take alot of care and dont need to be fed specific meals regularly?
The most hardy and best fish you think in your opinion for a 45.
Thanks for your comments.

search online for eqiupment.
What kind of lights do you have now?
Zoos, mushrooms, frowgsawns and A LOT more. Soft corals are easy to maintain.

zoas, polyps, and shrooms are defiately the easiest corals to have in your tank.
as far as a hardy fish for a 45...damsels are very hardy but are also agressive. if you decide to add damsels (blue, yellow tail, 3 stripe, fiji devil, etc...) make sure you add it last 'cause once in your tank it will bully anything you put in and they are very hard to get out of your tank.
