what is your favorite coral you've never kept?

mine is Montipora, any of them but especially the blue-green ones

 

[EricR]

Any torch, especially with long, wavy polyps,,, been too timid to try one yet. (Soft corals only, so far)

 

[death-by-reef]

nice

 

[exnisstech]

My bubble because I've had it for almost 6 years, its gotten big and it hasn't died.
Edit Du mis read the title. Scolymia is one I've always looked at but the nice ones are more than I care to spend on a piece so I've been ever bought one.

 

[JoJosReef]

Mine would have to be either a bubble or an elegance, since my tanks aren't large enough for such big corals. Cynaria would be cool, too.

Since I seem to have no self control and buy everything I like it has to be something like Acropora Palmata (elkhorn) that is protected and cant be collected.

cool

I'm still looking for a nice bright cabbage coral! I love the plating grow of montis but have heard the stories... I have a 30 gallon and going for lower maintenance. I also just think they are awesome! I also want to try a forest fire digi, pretty much the only sps that appeals to me.

Scolies for me. I’ve always wanted one but many similar lps corals don’t do great in my tank so I’m afraid to take the risk on an expensive coral.

 

[Alexopora]

Oh do I have a list
1. Scolymia (I’ll foresee myself getting one perhaps in 2023)

2. Anemones (Not corals but close) most likely rockflower

3. Chalices (I’m always trying to buy one but end up getting distracted and walking out with some kind of sps)

4. Bubble Coral (looking for the right one, perhaps a really striking green or blue frag)

5. Darth Maul Porites (basically more colour variants of porites, am probably one of the very few reefkeepers that absolutely loves Porites)

6. Tongue Corals

7. The typical brains (Lobo, Trachy, Acanthophyllias etc)

atp this is more of a wishlist

 

[Lps_lover12]

Scoly for me, just scared to spend that kind of money and have it die. Their amazing and I know I’ll get one soon

I got a $25 scoly from a big AquaSD sale! Obviously not a war paint or bleeding apple or anything super fancy, but I like it and it's a good entry point if you're unsure about a scoly.
Front, slightly right. Please ignore the nasty GHA:

Ive considered trying to get a cheap button scoly to see how it does in my tank.
