Cool corals/inverts that go in the sand

Ok so I love the fact that I have a lot of open space in the center of my tank, but I think I need some things that can hang out there. I had my 2" crocea clam there which I loved, but I moved it up on a rock and now I don't want to move it again and harm it. Are there any corals you suggest that like a spot lower in the aquarium that would settle in the sand or on a small rock or plug on the sand. Right now I have a 2" frag of a green toadstool hanging out there, but I would like more. I would like more clams eventually, but I feel like I introduced my crocea a little too early and it was having some trouble acclimating until recently. I want to wait another 2 months or so before I get another one.

Re: corals/inverts that go in the sand

my flame is known to pick at open brains, plate corals are supposed to be a pain in the A (biff I thought u hate them?), and feather dusters sounds ok. I have one torch on the sand that has a rock base. I love the way it looks, I would like to get a hammer, but I would need another color than neon green. They do have white ones and green/brown ones right?

Re: corals/inverts that go in the sand

How about a pink hammer? Those are really common. And yes, I do hate plate corals. WORST CORALS EVER.

bubble coral. There are pink white and green ones. This is the coral that sparked my intrest big time in saltwater tanks. Love them.
