Newb needs advice

[reefnewb]

Thank you all for the advice.

Any issues between fish and corals I should consider?

With your lighting I would go with softies. Are you planning for metal halides?

[SeaHorse_Fanatic]

Stay away from SPS corals for now. Most of these require high light (metal halides), high flow & extremely high water quality.

Softies and certain types of LPS (large polyp stonies) are well suited to reef newbie tanks since they are much more forgiving of water quality & will do well under your PC lighting.

ive read that using crushed coral in a reef tank isnt a good thing, as it can trap a lot of nitrates.

I agree that softies & LPS are your best bet. You may also want to include an anemone for your clown to host.
