I am wanting to add some more coral to my tank. Any pictures and suggestions are welcome.

My tank: 29 gallon tall
Lighting: 72 total watt PC
Rock & Live sand: 70 #'s


I currently have (coral):

Green star polyps
Kenya Tree
Pulsing Xenia
Hairy mushroom
zoanthids (SP?) 2 species or colors
2 unknown mushrooms
1/4'' colt coral (hoping for growth)

Fish and Inverts:

2 False Percs
1 Hawaiian blue hermit
3 misc hermits
1 Sea hare
1 emerald crab
1 peppermint shrimp
1 diamond goby
2 misc snails (hitchhikers)
? astrenia stars

What I would like to add:

Florida ricordea
Daisy polyps
More zoos
green tip frogspawn
sunburst scroll
sun coral
purple tip hammer
green polyp toadstool leather
Orange Montipora Capricornis (lighting will be an issue with this, correct?)
chili coral (to hang upside down under a rock)
galaxea


I am also wanting an anemone. I would like for the false percs to host one. Anyone have any ideas?

Let me know if any of you have a better stock list. I am currently looking at lighting. Something 30'' with 120-145 watts (T5).
 
Now this would be a first of no comments. Come on reefers! Just let me know if I am on the right track with what would be a nice looking tank.
 
got pics? honestly i would invest in a bigger tank to fit your 75lbs of live rock and with the investment for t5's to go with it.
 
I do have things you would be interested coral/equipment but if i were you i would look into getting a 55 or 75 becuz over stocking is punishing species. What you have now is perfect for a 29. If you have a fetish for more corals i would suggest going bigger! good luck!
 
I have a 75 that is just hanging out but wanting to hold off. I will get some pictures posted soon.
