if able to i would do both. personaly for fish cant go wrong with clown fish. seems to me everyone likes them. plus very hardy. coral side couldnt tell u but i got a buddy who sell coral frags and he makes good money doing that

problem with corals is.....you wont make any money.....after you factor in the extra light and everything. How about a clownfish farm.........that would be cool as hell. Search youtube for clownfish farm or babies. they are freaking cool to watch hatch and everything.

you could grow a farm of softies under very little lighting,I have been selling frags of green leathers for 15 bucks each from my house and they are only 1.5 inches, fish would be sweet too,peppermint shrimp,would make some money,.Berghi Nudibranch would make you rich..

well hell you could get some blue zoo's.........OR if you really want to make some cash.......get some montipora caps.........get green blue and red and yellow......frag them small.......and glue all of them onto the same rock into a sprial formation and let them grow into eachother.........being of the same family they wouldnt sting eachother.......but it would look sweet as hell!

I would go with rare zoanthids. They are hardy and grow fast. Purple Hornets, Spidermans, Blue's, etc.

Morphs good colored ones. cost you sfa and can be easily multiplied for free. sell for the same cost you bought them for over and over and over. Sinulara softie trees are also a quick good seller. just cutoff a branch when ever you want to frag and they regrow rapidly.
