What's Your Favorite Coral?
I'm curious what the hottest corals are now amongst reef keepers. What's in your tank?

Nice! I have two in my 135, and I love them (although they don't seem to like my new flow plan. :-( How long have you had it? Do you dose anything?

I've had it for about a month and a half. Yeah I had to adjust my flow around the big guy. I don't dose anything specifically for him but I do spot feed about twice a week. Phytoplankton or rotifers.

I'm partial to LPS these days...cool colors of Acan, Favia or Blasto...
This is one I'd love to have, but I've yet to find a small colony under $400!

Cool pic! So you are a Mussidae kinda guy, eh? What kind of lights do you keep on your Blastomussa? That's a deep water species, right?

I'd have to say A. Millepora is my overall favorite, especially when they get 6"+.
