AS always please feel free to add to the list:

-SPS- Small Polyp Stony Coral- Acropora, Montipora, etc
-LPS- Large polyp stony coral- Bubble Coral, Plate Coral, etc
-Softy- Soft Corals no skeleton- Leathers, Shrooms, etc
-Zoa,Zoos- Referring to a soft coral called Zoanthids

-SPS needs strong flow, High Mag, Calcium, Alk, Strong Intense light "Metal halides, HO T-5 W/Parabolic reflectors" Really clean water.
-LPS needs moderate flow, high calcium, Mag, Alk, Moderate Light.
-Softy depends on the species, Good Lighting "PC" Decent Flow and decent water conditions
