What kind of corals could I keep with these? They would be going over a 12 gallon tank if I get them.
Nova Extreme SLR T-5 Fixture:
18" x 5-1/2" 40 watts
1-20 W 10,000°K
1-20 W 460 nm actinic

I keep some of the less light demanding SPS under that same light in my frag tank. Birdsnest, monti cap, and digita. It is a 10 gallon frag tank so it is not that much different than a 12 gallon tank.
As for clams I would stay away from the Maxima and Crocea. The Derasa clam might work but I personally wouldn't add one. Clams also should be added to a mature tank that has been up and running for at least 6 months.

Do you have any pictures of your frag tank?

Very nice. What kind of filtration do you use and what do you dose, if you dose at all. Thanks in advance.
I have a very small cheap filter that I got from one of the pet chain stores. Not sure of the brand. I only use the filter pad. I do 10% water changes weekly so I do not have to dose anything.

With those lights you can also have a foxcoral. It actually does very well with out halide lighting.
