Recommend a coral please

[rcreations]

I have a 65gal with T5 HO lights (individual reflectors) 240w. Can someone offer some suggestions on a coral that would go on the sand and not move around? I'd like it to get around 6"-8" round/big or if it gets bigger, I can be able to trim it. Some of the ones I was thinking of would be a brain or maybe a toadstool leather. And everywhere I read, it says Elegance Coral is easy to take care of. Would this one be ok? I'd really like something in red or pink but any color is ok. Thanks!

Elegnace isnt easy to take care of I had mine for like 8 months and was dong great and just died off slowly... They use to be easy to take care but now are very hard to take care of...
You can look into diff plate corals or a brain coral would be nice.. But id stay away from elegance for now

i'd say get a brain too. i hv an open brain on my sandbed under t5.

How about a toadstool leather? I hear they're pretty hardy.

they are a moderate coral but they get larde and wide and would take up alot of viewing space if in the sand bed on the front of the tank.

how about a large pineapple favia brain. I have one on the sand that is about 8 inches in diameter and is perfectly round
