Agreed. If it makes you happy then who cares what other people think. Your the one spending money on your entire system. Not just frags and fish but all the equipment to keep it running. So do what you like and makes you happy. (And your significant other because that is important too.)Rated by whom?
To be overrated or underrated, it'd have to be rated, right? Who rates corals? Why would anyone listen to them, whoever 'they' are?
It's your aquarium. Buy what makes you happy, and a price you can afford. I'm much more worried about health of the critters I'm adding than I am about price, or even color, for that matter. I know, the 'show' quality tanks are full of breathtaking colors... but so what? There is NOTHING wrong with a tank full of more affordable, easier to keep corals.
Don't like where the industry is pushing us to be? Don't go there! It's YOUR tank, do with it as you will. Buying hundred dollar quarter inch sticks is _NOT_ something I'm willing to do. Haven't done so, and won't be doing so, thanks.
Ok here...
I know I’m not going to make any friends with this post but generally speaking....
Most overrated - acros and bounce mushrooms
Most underrated - leathers and gorgonians

Acros are definitely OVERRATED
Who wants to grow out Acros for 3+ years only for them to die from STN within a week
BTW, I think bounce mushrooms are diseased looking.
I have to agree. I had a tank years ago with softies and got the stick bug. I had some personal things happen and had to break down the tank. This time around, I told my wife, I want a small tank and all softies. Well, she wanted a bigger tank, and I slowly got the stick bug again. As my tank matured, I slowly started to collect more acros and gotten rid of my leathers. It's exciting when things grow and your tank is mature and stable. Friends and family come over and are amazed at my tank these days.To me it's the difficultly level. IMO keeping acros alive and growing is one of the most difficult things in reefing, and when I'm successful it's exciting! I had softies for decades and never even bothered with water changes. But acros, that takes a bit of skill.
Since I love acros, I'll answer the question from that perspective. There are some overrated and some underrated. I would say in general, most of the "new" corals like the previously mentioned Walt Disney are overrated. I like my Walt Disney, but I have other more common corals which I feel are much nicer to look at. Most of the older corals, such as PC Rainbow, PC Superman, ASD Rainbow Milli, Bali Green Slimer are underrated. They are absolutely beautiful corals which can be purchased for far less than some of the newer, less beautiful acros.
To me, it's all about what the acros look like (under realistic lighting). I'm happy to pay more for a more beautiful acro, with or without a fancy name.
You are a maniac. Lolol. That is so funny.
