In general, most newbies start with softies, because they're easier to keep & they need less light & can withstand lower water quality than LPS or SPS. Zoos & mushrooms & leathers fall in this category. Fiji Yellow leathers are the exception & need high light or they turn brown. Start with some frags from local reefers & that'll keep the cost down & improve your chances, as well as keep you from risking the life of more expensive, harder to keep wild harvested corals.
