What are some easy care soft Corals/Inverts that are in the trade and reasonably priced?
star polyps
'shrooms
Tree coral
leather coral
 
Most soft corals are quite easy, as long as they're photosynthetic. I only say this, because some aren't and require attentive target feeding.

Green Star Polyp is very easy, but can quickly over take your tank...AND it's very toxic towards other corals.

Xenia is another very easy one that can also quickly take over...lol. It's also known to suddenly crash for no known reason. But it usually comes back.

Most of your Leather corals, Sarcophyton and Lobophyton are quite easy to care for, although they might like a little more light than other soft corals.

Most mushrooms are quite easy, although there are some Yuma and Ricordia that require a little more care.

Kenya Tree is also a very easy one.

All of those mentioned above are easy to care for, grow quickly, especially in less than perfect water conditions and are quite easy to frag in the future.
