"Easy" SPS?

I want to start getting into more SPS's, I have some monti caps that grow like weeds. I have a monti digita that is growing nicely & a deep water acro that is growing real slow lol But it has good polyp extension. I just want some SPS that are not really hard to keep & that I can see grow

 

I haven't been able to kill my green birds next yet

 

lol I heard birds nest are easy to keep, I'm going to get one soon.

 

+1 on birdsnest. after monti it is definitely the easiest. as long as it has flow it's pretty happy.

 

Oh yeah I have lots of flow, I have to constantly fix my DSB lol

 

Green Slimers are impossible to kill (relatively) and grow fast.
My poccis grow very fast as well.

 

Green Slimers are nice, I'll look into one

 

Any more "easy" SPS's? I'm going out today might buy some

 

I actually haven't found a 'hard' sps to keep. Besides lighting, they all basically need decent flow and stable parameters. IMO, sps aren't as difficult to keep as some people make it out. Now, I'm not saying there aren't hard sps to keep, but the majority of common sps types really aren't that bad. I've kept montis, stylos and acros with no really problems. I did bleach my birdsnest and monti, so be careful of that.

 

I dont know , easy or hard to be honest
so from my limited experience
here are the ones that are doing very well for me, 6 months into SPS keeping

pink birdsnest
grape scrolling Monti
monti cap - red
encrusting monti - yellowy green
Millepora - I have 2 colonies and 3 smaller frags and all are showing great PE and the frags are colouring up rapidly
pearlberry staghorn


SPS that didnt do well for me
2 x wild collected Acro colonies

so IMO start with aquacultured frags, that have grown in a captive enviroment and as such are probably going to adapt better to your tank conditions than something attached to live rock that has recently been removed from the sea
