Mushrooms and leathers are usally good starter corals if you have the correct setup for to care for them.

Zoanthids and Photosynthetic Nepthea are another two good beginner corals if you have the proper cycled tank with the correct setup for to care for them.

Well, as a beginner also. I quess the next logical question is, What is the correct set up for them?

I good basic setup for the more durable soft corals would be a tank of course, heater with about 3x the watts to gallons, Water flow of 15-25x tank turnover per hour through any number of means from sump returns power heads and such, good lighting with VHO or pc being good for softies and lps and a good skimmer. THis will get you going on a good start.
