I was staring at my tank like I do everyday, and I just couldn't stop looking at my elegance coral that I have had for over a year. I realized that this is honestly my favorite coral in the tank. It might not be the most expensive one I have but it's definitely very unique compared to the other elegance I've had in the past. The mouth is a pink/purple, with neon lime tentacles and pink and orange tips. I bought this beauty for $80 as an elegance from Taiwan and I'm so glad I took the risk. So what is your favorite coral in your tank? What piece can you just look at for a while and not think of anything else?

I would have to say my Duncan is my favorite coral. I could stare at it for hours. It's also in the process of producing more heads. Bought it with two small heads, now they're huge. They have 4 new heads and I see 3 more coming! So exciting.

Its hard for me to pick favorites. It’s either my blastomussa, my purple/orange/green micromussa, or my lobophyllia. The first two because they’re just so fluffy and pretty, the last because it’s got a lot of personality (as far as corals go), every time I feed the fish, take the lid off, put my hand in the water, basically do anything, it goes from looking like this fluffy pillow to this gnarly gaping alien mouth (there’s a term I would use to describe it that’s probably not appropriate on a ‘family friendly’ site such as this, but it’s two words, the second is ‘dentata’).

A some runners-up: my bubble coral, trachyphyllia, alveopora, Duncan, and green Nepthea/Sinularia.

Probably my neon green octospawn, here’s an old pic before I made my tank mostly acros. I’d also love my cb fire shroom and some other shrooms :D

That Kenya looks pretty sick. I haven't seen a red one like that before. I have the regular one and the neon blue/green one but that red one is pretty cool
That’s under my blue lights here it is under white
