This is my 120g reef tank that I’ve had set up for a little over a year at this point. I have GSP, some Zoas, and a leather coral. I’ve tried a duncan coral and some others but none seem to make it. What are some other relatively easy to case for corals that will take up space?

Get some Kenya tree. Gets big pretty quickly and spreads.

xenia, clove polyps and birds nest... they are all easy and grow fast, very simularly to the other coral types you already have.

Be warned, most consider these to be "invasive" corals due to how fast they grow and can be difficult to manage in the future when they have taken over your rockwork.

Hollywood Stunner chalice is a great grower. Most reefers complain that it gets too big and does have nasty (or beautiful) stinging tentacles. Birdsnest can be very rewarding and grow fast.

What kind of lights (Par really?) do you have to grow the coral under?
That softy on the right should grow fairly quickly.
