I'm starting a little 40 oz pico from PNW like what @AlyciaMarie used to have.

I just was looking for input on stocking ideas.

I thought about just doing some softies like xenia or mushrooms and just letting them take over.

Maybe a hammer garden would be nice?

I don't think I'll try sps.... be a bit tricky to keep rock solid stable at that size :(

Hopefully it proves to be functional and not just a novelty.
 
I will second sexy shrimp! Or just having a general invert-focused tank!

Maybe some zoas? Could mix some colors.

Zoas would be a great option! One of the pico tanks I usually see at trade shows is packed full of corals. I wish I had a picture of it, but sadly I don't
