It looks like your off to a good start. I really like your rock work. There are a lot of different corals that your could start out with. Any kind of mushrooms, especially ricordea which is my favorite, green star polyps, clove polyps, candy canes, frogspawn, zoanthids (but since your lighting isn't too strong the really colorful ones may turn brown on you).
When it comes to fragging, it really depends on the type of coral your fragging. If you ever need to frag something, make a thread asking how, or you could always ask me and I'll be happy to help.
