I was wondering if i could get a few suggestions about what kinds of corals i could have. This will be my first reef but im not a total begginer (fowlr tank 20 months)

55g tank
20g diy sump
Coralife super skimmer 65
30 lbs live rock (to start off)
4x65w PC lights 12000k
I would like some stuff with lots of color!
Thanks

You will be limited to Featherdusters, mushrooms, gorgonians, any soft corals basically IMO. Welcome to the boards BTW.

Thanks for the warm welcome!
Thats the stuff i expected and pretty much wanted to keep any way. Thats all i can afford in lights right now with maybe the possibility of halides in the distant future. But i like the way leathers and hairy mushrooms look any way ))
I was also wondering (still learning hard and soft corals) would colt corals be ok to keep??? I love the way they look

You can keep mushrooms as stated, also green star polyps and also zoos with that set up.
