Some of my favorites are the Fiji Yellow Leather, Palau Nepthea, Tyree Green Polyp Toadstool, purple Efflatounaria, blue Cespitularia, blue Sympodium, and the green variety of Kenya Tree (Capnella). I also like the look and movement of Finger Leathers, Anthelia, Clove polyps, and Xenia, but they aren't as colorful. If you want a carpeted area, it's hard to beat Green Star Polyps. I'm on the fence about Blue Clove Polyps (Sansibia) since they can cover all your rock and take over, but I've considered trying them. For fill in color you can't go wrong with Zoas and Palys and Ricordia florida on the bottom.

I set up a softie tank a while back and absolutely love it. It's not as colorful as my LPS tank, but the movement is hypnotizing.
