button polyps, shrooms, kenya trees, star polyps, and sun coral if you can keep up with feeding it.

The Koran may very well nibble on any corals you put in the tank. You said he was large and people have experiences with them being "reef-safe" as juveniles and then when they grow older they start to eat the corals.

I don't think anyone named Caral would want to be shoved into a fish tank. A good low light coral however, would be a Chili Coral.
