I have a 15 gallon IM nuvo and want to eventually get around to keeping some acros in it but don’t want to fry all of my moderate to low light coral, any recommendations for types or morphs I should try out/ tips for creating a high par at the top and hard drop off to lower par

Try lower light acros like red dragon or some other smoothies. They generally do well in a bit lower light

Thanks definitely am going to look into red dragons I’m thinking about adding gonis in a month or two then acros
 
What light do you have on the tank? A 50 watt light is not going to fry any corals.
