My first time tank- waterbox peninsula 25

[Coral Daddy]

Howdy Y’all,
I have for a long time been highly interested in starting a reef tank. As luck would have it while on a work trip to Barbados I entered a raffle and won the 2nd place prize which was a Waterbox 25 peninsula with a bunch of other goodies. Skip to month 3 and it has been going well so far. Got a few corals that I know for sure the type because I got them at a LFS some others I need some help identifying.

I live in a NYC apartment so space is limited but the tank fits nicely in the apartment and I will eventually be building my desk to fit next to my setup in the upcoming months.

Tank: Waterbox Peninsula Mini 25, stock return pump (most likely will upgrade) running the stock filter sock (but just waiting for the InTank media chamber and then will be going to filter floss and some other media as well suggestions greatly appreciated)

Lighting: AI Prime HD 16

Flow: Nero 3

Cover: DIY custom cover I made myself

Sand: Fiji Pink

Rock: Caribsea life rock shapes

My Current Livestock
- 2 Ocellaris Clownfish (Garfield and Lasagne)
- 1 Coral Banded Shrimp (Darth Baiter he’s quite the jerk)
- 1 Yellow Watchman Goby (Rorschach hoping to get him a pistol shrimp pal but idk if the CBS and that is a good idea)
- 5 Nassarius Snails, 4 Turbo Snails and 1 Emerald Crab

I want to add a Six Line Wrasse and a Pistol Shrimp

Current corals:
GSP
Green Tip Hammer (unsure actual name)
Blue Tip Hammer (unsure actual name)

And then I have 5 unidentified corals I need help identifying

Yeah I can already feel that if I’m still successful with this tank in a year I will want another or a bigger one

Very nice, I see some zoas in the third pic. On the right Blue Steel and in the middle fruit loops or rastas, hard to be sure under heavy blues. Perhaps take a picture of the five you want identified under whites individually for better identification.

Third photo looks like a cyphestrea, I was way off on the two zoas. Sorry I can’t identify them. Hopefully someone will jump in.
