Good Starter Corals

[ecomaker101]

I have heard that zooanthids and Ricordea Mushroom corals are great starter corals, however I was wondering if they are fish-safe? I have seen pictures of these corals killing each other and fish, and I would not want this to happen. any info will help...

+1..i have over 20 morphs in my 28 nano. never had any problems!

actually it depends on which fish. some fish will nip at the coral thus leading to the coral trying to defend itself..

my first coral that i still have is a hammerhead coral.

Zoas don't eat fish. Mushrooms don't either, the exception would be the hairy mushroom. They have been known, occasionally, to eat a small fish.
