yup. they may get nibbled on, but recover quickly, cost less and deal with high nutrient levels very well.

so a colony polyp will be okay if so i think i found something that i can keep that looks simaler to hard brain coral awsomethisissimple;4891206; said:
decided might add colorful colony polyps,soft treecoral,green finger leather coral,shaveing brush seaweed and a possibal red seaweed to tank when its finished but was just wondering wat type of water quality would i need for sponges and i think i already asked this question but would a large squamosa clam be fine with chain moray,jewel moray,bamboo or epualet shark and blacktip grouper or naso tang if i have powerful lighting and feed it supplements like the corals need? if not just let me know
Well first off, let me say that I dont think this is impossible.
Corals can grow in relatively high nitrates...but...this is a discussion for a different time and place.
That being said, for now, +1 to the softies, later on you can try to add brains ect.
The filter feeders would probably do fairly well in a tank full of large fish, making large poops. You would just have to see. Buy yourself a cheap gorgonian. If it does well...then maybe try a sea fan. Be ready to supplement food for it though.

Squamosa clams are the best choices for new clam keepers, I think it very possible that one could live in the system you are describing, be wary of harrassment from the sharks / eels. Clams are tasty. Keep fish well fed and maybe they won't go looking for clam bake.
colony polyps are fine.
Dead corals are fine. They won't do anything bad.
I haven't kept sponges with much success, with the exception of ones that just grow out of my live rock. I would think they would be ok, unless something decides to nibble on them (which is a distinct possibility) Go for big flow.
