My tank is 1 months old. Its cycled and i have 1 bicolor blenny and 2 darwin clowns its 36 gallons. Running with g5 radion blue light. And i was wondering if i can have 1 coral for now like a zoa? Or i have to wait 2-3 months? Thanks.
Zoas, trumpet corals, blastos/micros, and even stylophoras and birdsnests are all great beginner corals. It really depends on what kind of reef ecotype appeals to you. Don't prescribe to the old school philosophy that soft corals are the "beginner" corals, and that you have to "work your way up" to SPS. There are soft corals that are more difficult to keep than hard corals and LPS; there are LPS corals that are harder to keep than SPS corals. Start with whatever interests you.
