If the ones that you have listed are all doing well and growing, I would say you should be able to keep just about any sps. I say find something you like and go for it. The ORA corals are nice looking and generally very hardy. They are also fairly widely available. ORA's Chip's acro is one of my favs. Nice coloration and very fuzzy. Blue stags are also pretty common and good growers. If you are into monties, you can't go wrong w/ a sunset monty. Birdsnests are also attractive and good growers.

Yes....ORA's are one of my favorites.....As well as Wayne and Pazaaz's entire collections! LOL!

ORA are great, and there are many others that are very awesome. Like the garf bonsai, pink lemonade, and I have a few unkown with awesome color

named corals

you know i have always been on the fence about NAMED corlas... i the right conditions are given you can take a brown coral that you paid $30 for n turn it into something spectacular... it is true that propagated corals are much more likely to survive but imho it kinda takes the fun out of turning the coral yourself.. also if you want a great grower and nice color try milliapora. they car fairly easy to keep n in the right system you will get an inch a month

I second this. Although I have a bunch of other cool SPS i'm still a huge fan of the millis. They grow really well, love lots of light and flow. They are generally pretty hardy too which is a plus, and they come in a lot of different colors so you have options. Word to the wise though, give them their space, they have a nasty sting second to anemones IMO. Let them touch another coral and they'll probably kill it. Still, they can make for a very impressive piece.
