Hello Fellow Reefers,

I recently set up a 25 gallon JBJ AIO system with the latest AI Prime for a light. I'd possibly like to do some SPS at the top of my rock work. I have owned some SPS before (Birdsnest, green slime acre, montiporas, mdntipora setosa- some easier stuff), but want to try some more SPS in my nano. Do y'all have any suggestions of good SPS corals for a tank of my size and my lighting?

Thanks a ton and reef on!

Honestly you could grow any sps you would like I’ve seen others do it in a nano. Assuming your tank is ready and parameters are good, par etc. I would add a showpiece acro if it was my tank would look really cool in a nano! I would maybe first try some type of Monti or similar sps.

I agree that you can add any SPS you want, assuming you give it correct parameters. I would however choose something slower-ish growing. Something like a slimmer or fast growing stag would be too big in a short time.

I tend to also agree with @WIReefer, a show piece like Walt Disney would make a great center piece for your tank.
