I really love hammers. In my flower bed there is, which I consider rare. It has a smoky color.

I love Hammers, Torches, and Frogspawn.....pretty much all Euphyllia. Basically the only group of corals my 4 angels won't eat!

I'm also trying to collect all the hammers. I started searching a few months ago. The most spectacular hammer I've seen in person was a mini colony of different colored hammers and tentacles. There were the common blue greens and purples, but this one also had part of the colony with gold hammers. Besides that the other two rarest variations I've seen are two variations of gold hammer. One has gold tentacles and clear hammers but looks blue under blue light. I think some companies call it hologram but I'm not sure if it’s the same. The other one has blue tentacles and the hammers are really bright. It was called a yellow hammer at the lfs. I'm mainly looking for a blue and red/pink hammer but if I see a frag I don't have I'm tempted to buy it.

I have this red/pink hammer that I got from Low Tide Corals. I was just over there a couple of days ago and he still has one more

Lol I used to go crazy when I saw a new color for the first time. I'm still pretty obsessed with fimbriaphyllia but I need to start walking instead of running. I have good lfs in my area I saw new frags of yellow and reverse gold so they don't feel as rare anymore. The first time I saw a yellow mini colony I was like WOW I've seen fancy pictures of them online. I talked to the owner and he said there's nothing so rare he's only seen it once. When they get new shipments they do 25% off while its acclimating in the bag. He was like if you come every week eventually you'll find what you're looking for and for 25% off you can't complain.
