I have an Oceanic 58 gallon, 60lbs LR, 4-5 DSB, Aqua C Remora Pro skimmer, and 380 watts of VHO (2X10k, 2X03 actinic). My tank has been running for 3 moths now. Water parameters are as follows Ammonia undetecable, Nitrite undetectable, Nitrate undetectable, PH 8.0 to 8.2, Calcium 360.
This is my first saltwater tank and I really have no idea on what kind of corals to keep. I have Eric Borneman's book "Aquarium Corals" ordered at my local Barnes and Noble, and should be here hopefully this weekend. SO, with all that said what do YOU folks recomend I get, and what all corals can thrive under said lighting setup? Thanks!

You could pretty much do all soft corals and LPS corals and probably even some SPS with that lighting. You would probably be good for all but the most light requiring SPS and clams. I have alittle less than that and have many softies and LPS thriving. Good luck! I have that book on the way in the mail from Amazon this week too;)
