Clams and scallops are definitely out. Most tridacna clams require metal halide lighting as they are totally photosynthetic. The only giant clams that don't require high lighting are squamosas and they get to be up to 20" long which is totally unsuitable in a tank of your size. Scallops are total filter feeders who are sadly enough doomed to die in captivity and should be left in the ocean..........stick with mushrooms, zoas and some of the leathers such as toadstools, fingers, and such like kenya trees, also xenias and other polyps....
really.....I have a huge green one, though it is under mh light it has grown from about the size of a quarter to about 10-12 inches across. I have a pulsing sinularia that does well under pcs also....and I have a frogspawn that I have had for a year or so under pcs that has quadrupled in size.....lots of possiblities.
Not to sound harsh, but I think you should know that it's a much better idea to find out before you buy what the requirements or characteristics of any creature are.
GSPs are famous for overtaking tanks. They'll spread everywhere, and it'sa good idea to put them on an island rock where they can't cover the whole tank. They don't have high requirements, but they can close up for a week or 10 days if they get annoyed by changes in parameters or there isn't enough flow for them.
