    start off with the basic for the standard lighting. zooanthids, green star polyps, kenya tree, colt coral, mushrooms that is about all that will thrive in your light, if you want sps you should upgrade your lighting to metalhalide. but the ones I listed above will surely add a splash of color to the tank and give it a nice look.

    hope this helped

    The only thing i can add to the MH lights is a skimmer, a sump/refug, and probably a powerhead or two.
    Failure is for those who accept it.
