I'm sure shrooms would make the tank look better, but what should i put in the tank?

You can have lots of that pretty green flowing stuff, whats it called? Oh yeah, hair algae!!!! No just kidding, Xenia, shrooms, and maybe some low light gorgoinians, also green star polyps.

Most softies would do fine in your tank. I have frags of encrusting gorgonia, several zoo morphs, green Ric yumas (would like more light probably) I would trade or sell you - PM me if interested. LPS - an open brain would love the lower lighting in your tank and probably get huge!
