So I primarily want to have easy, beginner types of coral in my tank. Things like Frogspawn, Zooas, Mushrooms, etc. I have a 93 gallon cube, with a Reefbreeders photon LED lighting. I can't seem to get any growth on my zoa frags or any other "easy" coral. What should I be checking on?

hoseing clownfish
I was wondering if there is anything besides coral/anome clownfish will house. If not, are they any corals they will house that rely on photoshnisis or eat frozen brine shrimp.
New Anthias Behavior
Hello All:
I got several new animals from Liveaquaria yesterday.
I bought a neon pineapple which I am not happy with. No big deal though.
I bought 7 peppermint shrimp (one tiny one was gone by morning). 6 of them seem very fat and happy and actually ate a few aiptasia.
And I got two Ignitus Anthias.
There tank mates are:
2 Ocellaris clowns
3 blue/green chromis
2 cleaners
3 kenya trees
1 Neon green sinularia.
94 gallon corner, skimmer, UV, power heads, LS bed, lots of LR.
So....
The anthias are incredibly skittish. One of them is sitting on the sand, seems to be breathing normally. The other one is hiding under a rock visible and moving. Neither have eaten yet. The one of the sand swam around for a few minutes after I tried to direct feed it mysis and some coral food mixed. It went back to its spot on the sand. It seems afraid of the clowns.
I have had Lyretails before (3) but they died when a heater malfunctioned.
The shipping from LA was delayed, usually it gets here by noon. It didn't get here until almost 7pm.
I wonder if that is part of the problem. Is the laying on the sand a sign of sickness? I did the recommended acclimation for a little over an hour by drip method.
Salt is about 1.026-1.027
Nitrite 0
Nitrate (maybe) 5 approx.
Ammonia 0
Temp 77-78
Thoughts? Thanks.

Feather duster lost its crown
Hey everyone...so I have this brown and white feather duster that I had been doing very well for a few months. About a couple of months ago I overdosed with NOPOX...the feather dusters feathers looked as tho someone had pulled them straight and cut them in half with scissors. Since then the duster has always been out and seemed healthy. All the sudden about a month later it seems like it has lost its crown! I have read that they will grow them back sometimes and its not too uncommon for them to do this. I have 2 other feather duster that are currently doing fine and have been in the tank the same amount of time. Thanks.
