CONGRATS! I love those toadstools too, it was one of my firsts too!
Great starter corals...
Anthelia, Kenya Tree, Mushrooms, Leathers, GSP (Green Star Polyps), and I am sure there are more!

Good luck!

ok thanks for the suggestions what about anemones my clowns are looking lonely???

Anemones are not generally for new set-ups. They prefer a very stable mature tank (6 months or so). In the meantime clowns will generally host in MANY alternate host corals. Possibly, anthelia, Hairy mushrooms, many love frogspawn,torch although not a "starter" but better to start there than an anemone in my opinion.
