I really like the dendro and the Yuma garden. Goni's are a favorite of mine, however, it's challenging for me to keep them healthy and alive. I also like the maxi-mini anemones, but I've definitely lost some small fish over the years to them.

I can see why those are your favorites! It's not too often I see people keeping dendros!
