Is there a good list of SPS/Soft/LPS corals that show feeding responses?

For example, most LPS are known to have a feeding response - such as

* acans
* platygyra
* favia/favites
* duncans
* candy canes

For softies like Ricordea I don’t know, and with SPS I don’t know but my leptoseris seem to respond much like a small favites

Monti/acro/birdsnest don’t seem to visibly respond to anything

Lobophyllia - but like Cynarina and scolymia this only feeds at night

Great pictures and info in the thread

Does anyone know if SPS every exhibit any meaningful feeding responses?

I should clarify too that by feeding response I mean 'appears to consume food'
