My girlfriend and I are looking for a new coral for her tank for her birthday... Her tank is a 10gal reef...
So far we have, multiple kinds of zoanthids and palythoas as well as some gsp...
What kind of coral would be a good option? She doesn't want any more greens or blues, but would rather like browns and whites... Preferably something available from liveaquaria.com because im placing an order for myself tonight...

we have been looking at their long polyp leather in their aquacultured coral section.

well thats what we ended up getting... the long polyp leather...
it should be great because it is going to start off small, and as it grows we can frag small pieces off... first for my larger tank, and then for credit at the LFS... i also ordered a blue spruce caulestra from their aquacultured section as well... Because they are from the aquacultured section, they have a 30 day guarantee... That is great! We can't wait!!
We will post pics within our threads when we get them!
blue spruce caulestra. Good choice, I'm picking my frag of it up this weekend.

ya i can't wait! how are you planning on acclimating it? drip? and then start it low in the tank??? i don't know if i should do that because i don't have individually reflected t-5s... i can probably just put it where i want huh...
The local that has it now has the same lighting and similiar water parameters. Probably still do a drip, not because it will need to be a long time but just easier to let it do it's thing instead of babysitting it.
bring on the pics you guys
