good starter sps corals

[new reefer in michigan]

I would like to try some sps corals. Can I keep these coral with power compact lighting? I currently have 4 96 watt bulbs. I have an anemone that is doing very well under these lights. I have several soft corals and some hards and they are all doing very well. Which sps would you recommed for the beginner?

Perhaps montipora or even hydnophora which other may argue against. I am not a fan of florescent lighting and SPS but some claim good results.

if they are up close..montipora digitata...acroporas wont like that little PC light unless its a very small tank....the montiporas will do fine unless oyu have like a 125

I am keeping a couple of sp of montipora and stylophora in a 10 gallon nano under PC's (65 watts, 3 7100K, 2 Actinics). All have done quite well although they do not color up as nicely as their mother colonies under MH's. I have one Acro in there right now, but it has only been there about 2 weeks, so far so good though. HTH.
