    I am looking to add some more coral to my 75g. I have a few overhangs that i'd like to grow corals "under". It's not a cave per se, but it is certainly under an overhang so it'd have to be something that will do well in low light, but i don't want polyps or mushrooms.

    Any suggestions?

    Sun corals (Tubastrea) that is if you want to feed it 3 or more days a week. Look at NPS corals, but only if you are dedicated enough to provide frequent target feedings.

    I read a neat writeup on Chalices the other day. I forget who wrote it or what forum it was on, but it said they liked the overhangs. may want to look into that.
