This is mostly about designer corals and not "entire species" of corals, but those can count too lol.

I wanna see what everybody's opinions are on this subject - what, to you, are the ugliest corals? Certain "designer" types, certain colors, shapes, etc.

Post a picture if you want! I'll start -

Literally any Bounce mushrooms. They look like they've got pestilent boils growing on them. I feel like if I touch them I'll get zombified and it looks like a melted pile of "something" LOL

Ya, I never got the bounce mushroom thing and especially the price. I don’t think I would buy one if it was $15.

Im going to ruffle some big feathers, but these. They remind me of the spin art from the fair when I was a kid.

I think a lot of it has to do with the top down view and the added over saturation to the picture.

IRL, I’d say Scolies and open brains look great .

I keep finding you on the right side of the issues that really count. They remind me of a hippie on a Schwinn. Therefore, I don't like em.

Zoa's - they tend to ruin the aquascape.

The only way I can see them look good is if they're designed to resemble a bouquet of flowers.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
