I'm trying to accomplish a mixed reef tank like everyone I've made mistakes and lost corals fish etc. I've only been reefing 2 yrs I had a red sea 250 before this tank . Now any ideas or recommendations of any corals I should add? Here's a quick video and pic also a pic of a new baby croc scoly my wife bought me. I'll input will be appreciated.

Every coral thrives at different depths in nature.

Find out what type of coral you like/want and stay within that depth as far as lighting

Most mix reefs run into problems when you have corals that thrive at 3ft and others at 30ft. Cant have it all in one glass box.
Hence....

High light corals = 3to10ft in nature
Medium = 10to20ft
Low = 20to40ft

KNOW THY CORAL AND WHAT DEPTH IT THRIVES AT
