Hey guys!
What would be some good corals to Keemun a predator tank that has a pretty good sized haddoni in it?

The below tank has a dwarf moray and had a dwarf lion at one point in time, as it was super small when I got it and was afraid of putting the little guy in with the big fish in the big tank lol. The small fish were not in there when the dwarf lion was in there also lol.Soft corals preferably because I’m new to saltwater tanks. This tank is 90g.
I have a lionfish and an urchin in there right now. May add an eel and another urchin as well as some hermits eventually.
Haddonis will eat fish, but over the years I have noticed when clowns are present that the nem lets host, fish do not get eaten.Toadstool/Sarcophyton.
Cabbage coral/Sinularia.
Any of the Mushrooms.
Haddoni are fish eaters big time.
what kind of lion?
if the fish is smaller then the lion, the lion will try to eat it IME.
Toadstool/Sarcophyton.
Cabbage coral/Sinularia.

That fish have a huge mouth. Anything shorter than him will be fair game and will end up as food. He will produce too much waste for a reef tank. I would re home him. He may ended up as food for the Haddoni.
Oops, I assumed you'd remove the lionfish when you asked about adding corals.
It is more when they get full grown. That is why mine got moved to an aggressive only tank. When small to medium they do ok. But it will not last long term when they are full grown.No. Hes still in there. But like i mentioned earlier, He doesn't mess with the haddoni at all.
Does having a lion mean no coral? I've seen tanks with multiple dwarfs and corals in there.

He will do fine in a 90, but it needs to be an aggressive species only tank for him to stay fine when large. To me 5-6” is large for that guy. At that size it can eat a full grown clown with no issues. I apologize if me originally saying it could be done was not elaborated more as our lion did get removed due to size and wanting to go a mixed reef route. With that said, I have been where you are wanting this but want to add that, so to speak. It is a hard choice, but sadly in our glass boxes we have to choose. I choose to make the 90 a mixed reef, and then do an aggressive tank with zoas/palys and some leathers. So to correct my lack of a full explanation with my experiences it can do fine temporarily but long term it does not work. Species/aggressive only tank with softies for the corals will work long term. The haddoni long term is a toss up for an aggressive tank.He's not full grown.. I'm honestly not even sure of his age.. i need to ask his previous owner to see if he knows. But he seems to have plenty of room in the 90g tank. He does need more hiding places so i may be getting some more rock for the tank soon.
