So I have been running my tank for awhile now and as of late I have had some good success with the SPS variety in my tank. I'm now considering moving on to some of the more expensive variety. I'm not sure if what i have currently in the tank is hard to keep or not but all that are in the tank are growing "Fast". Perhaps these corals are hard to keep and I'm in a good spot. Thoughts from you experienced reef keepers would be appreciated.

I will get some pics soon, my tank is not what i dreamed it to be but i guess they never really go as planned...

The only one on that list I have ever had is the Oregon tort. I don't think they are considered particularly difficult, but I managed to kill mine after about 2 years of doing well. No idea why - other Acros were still doing well.

Basic rule of thumb: the life span of a coral is inversely proportional to its cost.

Mind I take terrible pictures obviously but you get the idea. Mind my ghetto cooling system. Hey it was $15 at dollar general lol
