What kinds of Coral - Help me out :)

Hello there,

I am looking for a almost centerpiece to my tank. What I mean by that is I have one area of the tank that is open, 20 inches to the bottom of the tank from the light bulb ( mh 150w hqi de, with dual 65w 03 actinics and 2 1w 460nm moonlights ) I think that made sense... ;) The coral needs to be about 4 inches wide and a couple inches deep, or something along those lines, overall a nice sized coral. The thing is this. It needs to be colorful, play nice with ricordias that are near by, not have sweeper tentacles, thrive well in low light ( as stated above ) and a low flow.

The Challenge: What I need is for people to make suggestions, provide links, photos. Whatever you can so that I can see some potential ideas. I would like something with color, but unsure how much color will stay at 20" with a single 150 on it. I appreciate your time and your help with this. Thanks!
 
I like dendrophyllia "dendro's". They area low ligh coral and are very colorful, kinda pricey but well worth it.
 
I was also going to say dendro, check out my other post for they have all the color you need ,stay open all day and after feeding open up real big,one head in my tabk gets about 1 1/2 -2 inches .
