Does anyone have a idea on some good starter corals and anemones. I have a 200g tank with two Koralia 3 powerheads. Under the hood I have 2- 10000k Metal Halide(one on left one an right) and one 20000k Metal Halide(in the center) with two 12”x12” blue moonlights and a 48” coralife power compact light with 2 white and 2 blue bulbs. I think I have enough light and water movement and my nitrates are low so I think I’m ready. I would like to add some anemones with clown fish as well.

I'd start with some softies like zoanthids, shrooms, leathers, or rics. Maybe go with some LPS like frogspawn or hammer.
Personally, I'd hold off on the anemone until the tank gets a little more stable. They're not generally thought of as a "beginner" specimen.

Hi, DeeJenn.
+1 on holding off on the anemone.

Clowns will host in other corals besides anemone's. I had one that liked the frogspawn.

good luck,
Steve
