Most soft and LPS are more forgiving and might be a better choice for you at this point. Have a look at some of the different types of corals availabe and decide on what it is that you want to keep. http://liveaquaria.com/product/aquar...lies.cfm?c=597

With enough T5 you can keep anything up to a certain depth. Check out this guys all T5 tank: http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2008-07/totm/index.php

Go slow & start with some easy to keep softy & LPS frags from other reefers' tanks. These are the hardiest & most likely to survive. As you gain experience, then you can invest in nicer, more expensive corals from the LFS. Frags are an economical & environmentally friendly way to get your "feet wet" in reef keeping without killing off specimens collected wild from the tropical reefs. Any tank-raised frag should be reasonably to extremely hardy.
