Which LPS is easiest to keep?

[klim]

Hammer not easy leh! Got 3 only 1 slightly open....praying hard

[stevenchia]

Agreed hammer was the easilest of all. 29 degree with blower fan and sufficient light it will grow..

I vote for hammer! I just started marine about 1mth ago. Added a hammer on wed and it seem to be doing well

Hi can anyone help me with this. Is it okay to replace coral chips with bio balls in my sump tank? Will it still cultivate bacteria? Thanks.

I actually quite itchy backside.. added my Plate coral only after 4days of tank cycling. it never died and opened fully the next day. so IMO, i think plate is the easiest.

I'm really a marine newbie (Freshwater whole life), and my hammer and plates are doing well.

Next I'm going to try bubble coral.. and hope to find a nice and colorful candycane (i think they are the more ex ones in the list above right?

[wind08]

i have a spot in my tank with very high flow and high light (top part of my tank, where the wavemaker is.

its an open spot where i can put corals. thought xenia can tahan the strong flow.. but like kena sweep away and donwan open LOL.

anyone can recommend any other species?

Bubble coral and hammer coral is the easiest I have 2 hammer and 1 bubble

[kohanson]

I voted for hammer too. Put the hammer in and within 2 hours, it started opening. Might be trying bubble coral as most of you guys have voted.

Torch not the favorable???? Just added one few days ago. Oh oh

Vote for bubble over hammer. My Bubble have been in the tank since day 1. But 2 out 3 hammer haven melted away. Not sure the reason but it produces brown stuff and melted away 1 after another.

So far for me I think bubble not that easy though. Cause can't have too much wave. And need to handle with extra care. Elegance for me is easy

As long as your water parameter is keep at right level, with the correct lighting, I believe mostly LPS is not hard to keep right? Anyway I still newbie , heehee
