You could get away with pc lighting for hammers and frogspawn.

Not true. Well could be true if you neglect it just like any coral

Be aware that the sun coral requires regular feedings. It does not depend on light to get its food.

I have one of those brown with olive green sun corals. Its not "bright" but it is still very stunning.

Also, the poylps are generaly only out at night unless you can train them to feed while your lights are on.

I have had experience with frogspawn under 110w PC lighting. Grows like crazy, I have about 7 - 8 heads on there now. So I think the frogspawn is a good candidate to get some bright colours in the tank.

Some Trumpet and Candycane corals (LPS) are colourful.

Zoos have good colour as well, some more than others.

ive got quite a few zoo's growing already,as for a Yellow Tonga Leather now were talking but has anyone had any luck keeping them,or a frag for sale ?.

the problem i am haveing is coral placement,my first lr was Kanai ,and most of it ,is large round or flat and takes up alot of room in my 20g,i was considering trying to trade it it for smaller pieces to make some more room but i dont have any problems apart from a small diatom bloom once in a while on the sand ,so playing with the lr might not be such a good idea ,i guess i am just crappy at aquascaping lol

Many types of LPS corals will do great in your tank with only PC lighting!
LPS usually are a medium to lower light loving corals.

I have both green frogspawn, green open brain, red donut, and white hammer in my tank under NO lighting.
All my LPS corals have been fragged many times over the last 6 years, and they all grow extremly well.
If I hadn't of fragged my hammer and frogspawn corals I would say that I would have about 30 branches on each colony by now!

I have only NO lighting and my Hammer and Frog Spawn do great no problems here.
