Most softies and lps are easy to care for if your tank has stable water parameters. Some lps require feedings, sometimes up to 3 times per week, or they will die, or fail to thrive because they are not receiving enough nutrition from the light and water column.
I have always found all leathers to be easy. If you like duncans and frogspawn try a hammer coral, they are similar, but with a different growth pattern.
In reality I always find the best advice for anyone looking for new corals and they are not sure what they are looking for is to look at sites that sell coral & fish and have pictures of them with accurate descriptions. Live Aquaria comes to mind. You get to see what a specimen looks like in perfect conditions, and find out exactly what quirks you should be aware of for owning this specific coral or fish.
