Looking for suggestions to brighten up my tank so it looks like a reef

[Carrera75]

Go with rics, yumas, GSP (but keep it isolated), cloves, zoas, yellow polyps (isolate them) duncans, toadstool, green sinularia, yellow fiji leather, Rhodactis mushrooms and regular mushrooms, candy cane, bubble coral and the lost goes on. There are so many nice Softies and LPS corals that are awesome and will add color to your reef. Look at websites like liveaquaria. This site has lots of pics of softies and LPS.

I would personally stay away from SPS. These corals are too demanding and it seems that a lot of people have a hard time with them....oh and they are very pricey too.

Good luck
