Could some one tell me what would be some good coral for a 6 gallon nano with minimum lighting and easy enough for a beginner? Thanks

mushrooms, maybe even rics, a full out ricordia tank would be awesome.
and zoos, but i dont like them. I like frogspawns... hammers... stuff like that, but a ric tank would be sweet.

jeez, how big would you like your rics to be, 4-5 inches accross?!? j/k
i would get mushrooms. i love 'em and they are very hardy. GSP is also good for guests, turn up the actinics and all they will say is WOW

The lights on that tank aren't that great for coral, so if anything I would stick to mushrooms.
