Help selecting corals for a 29 Gal Biocube

[vcman]

Hiya gang,
I was hoping to get some advice on what types of corals, mushrooms, etc.. would do well in a 29 Gallon Biocube. It has stock lighting that I understand is not great. That is why I need help in my selections. I have removed the bioballs and installed the inTank Media Filter and Fuge and also a Korelia 1 powerhead was installed. I have 35 lbs of fuji live rock at present.
Thank you for any help you can provide!
-Mike

Any kind of zoos you can get your hands on. I had a hammer coral and a frogspawn in my stock biocube and they did fantastic. Yellow polyps also do good. I also had some ricordea and they are doing fantastic. Hope that helps.

I agree with chaseter.... almost any softie should do well in there. Just make sure you're water quality is good.
How long has your tank been running?

Thanks for the reply! My tank is still new only a few days old. I know I wont be adding anything for some time until the cycle is complete. I just wanted to start researching care of the types of corals I will be adding but needed the type info before I got started. Hopefully the cycle will be complete in time for the Marine Expo in Costa Mesa.

Sounds good, never good to rush things. There is a chart in some part of this forum, I forget where but it gives you the name of the coral, how much light it needs and the type of flow it needs. Give it a look over.
