Soft coral suggestions for newbie

[Eva Rose]

I would like some soft coral suggestions. The following corals do well in my tank:
Gonipora
Favia
Sea Fans
Ricordia mushroom
1)Please suggest corals that are peaceful if possible, some semi aggressive are okay.
2) Please avold corals that would be invasive and spread to other areas.
3) Also I once saw a beautiful white coral that the tips looked lacy or like snowflakes. Any ideas what it was? A leather of some kind?
Thanks in advance!!

@melypr1985 recently posted a great article about the different leathers, and it is a good place to start. The article is here: https://www.reef2reef.com/ams/beginner-corals-leathers.249/

Personally, I love my neon green nepthea!

How about a frogspawn?

The white coral was probably Sinularia. That would be good. Toadstool, Devil's hand, Nepthea, would all be good.

I love toadstools, crown leathers, there is a neon green cabbage leather shown in my article... if you can find one of those, that would be awesome.

For super easy softies, look for Discosoma mushrooms.

Duncan corals are really cool
