Hello everyone!
So I want to get more into having sps in my tank. Right now i have 2 montis that are kicking butt, a birds nest, and either a stylo or a digi. I really want to get more into these sps and increase my collection. I really want a mili or some sort of acro but I don't want to get something that is super hard to hold onto for my first piece. I really like that shaggy look some of the milis have. Any suggestions on something that would be sweet to get?

Boring stuff:
40 gallon
Alk- 9.2
Calc - 450
Mg - 1380
Po4 - .08
No3 - undetectable but definitely there (great coloration)
Salinity - 1.026 at 35 ppm
temp - ~78 degrees

I always recommend the ORA Red Planet to people looking to get into SPS.
It's cheap, looks just as good as a high dollar SPS, and it's super hardy! One of my favorite pieces.
