What corals can I eventually keep?

I have just recently put up a 29G tank with an Aquasun T5 HO 30" light. I have a 10k bulb and an actinic 420 bulb. Both 24w. Just wondering what corals this light will support. Corals aren't happening for quite a while, but just looking to plan ahead for when myself and my tank are both ready.

You could have a good mix. With SPS toward the top and LPS in the middle and shrooms and zoos on the lower and middle. Just go slow and keep water quality high. Corals just wont grow as fast and colors may not be as intense.

You probably couldn't keep sps or clams
