Here's my tank at about 3 months set-up. I have a red headed goby, a feather duster, a leptoseris, and a sad candy cane coral (I think...LFS had all their coral labeled as "assorted soft coral").

Since this photo was taken, I've added some macoalgae and a mandarin goby. I'm waiting for the tank to age some more (and to save up some more money lol) before adding some new corals. What are people's suggestions? I also am planning on adding some better lighting. Right now I have some houseplant grow lights and some cheap (came with the tank) white LEDs.

I'd get rid of the grow lights as they can grow nuisance algae and not really the right Spectrum for corals. Look into Nicrew , Smatfarm , Noopsyche Led's budget friendly and can grow corals like the best of them just not the most user friendly.
