Super easy and beautiful SPS to keep?

[steventaylor702]

I'm looking for some nice looking SPS that are pretty easy to keep and suggestions and if you can put pics also. I have a green birds nest right now and one other type of SPS that I'm not sure of in my tank now that are doing ok

If you want branching Monti digita or if You want plating get cap. They are both easy and both pretty cool.

How do they do in small tanks

 

[b_rad_G]

Cap can grow large pretty quick and take a lot of room. Digita isn't so bad because it groves more vertical.

I basically crashed my tank and my tyree lemonade never lost PE. So I would put it as easy/hardy.

Do you guys have some pics

Pretty much any montipora!

Pretty much any montipora!

+1 birdsnest is pretty easy as well

 

[SloppyJ]

Any Acropora valida

 

[PaulKreider]

ORA Tri color valida, Green slimmer, Garf Bonsai, most monti caps

 

[TighTT]

Monti's and Stylos IMO.

I am pretty new to the SPS deal and have a pink birds nest with purple polyps that is doiing OK. I can post a pic later today when I get home.

Cool that's one that I want

i have a Candlelight acro that has been pretty hardy for me. some of my monti's have been pretty sensitive to alk swings but my candlelight has always has good polyp extension and been growing nicely. i had a Red Planet and an ORA Borealis not make it when i moved.

Pro Corals rainbow acro, ORA Red Planet, Blue Matrix acro, Battlecorals Space Ghost acro if you are looking for "named" acros. Otherwise I'd say start with montipora or stylophora.

montis, birdsnest, caps they grow fast pretty easy to keep!

I have a tank full of acros and my montiporas react faster to a swing than any of the acros. So weird.
