Least Invasive Softies?

[Eienna]

My landlord's wife really likes my tank and I want her to have fun with it, too. Problem is, most of the coral she likes are softies, like ricordea, Kenya tree and colt, while I like the LPS. Which softies are least invasive so I can let her get a few without them taking over?

To those who know about my latest disaster, don't worry. This is for future reference.

Ricordeas would be a great choice. They look great as colonies and are worth a decent amount if she ever needed to sell or trade chunks if she has too many.

Some nice zoas would be a good choice too. Just be careful not to get the invasive morphs.

Something that looks great in any tank are the neon green sinularias/neptheas.
Not a real fast grower, but still has great color.

I agree, ricordeas can be quite beautiful and can be managed. A nice toadstool would be a good addition too.

What are the invasive morphs?

They all are, ya gotta put them on their own island or they will in time take over the tank. But its a time thing, doesn't happen overnite.
