Mixed reef primarily. But in order of my favorite non-fish livestock:
1. Rock Flower Anemones
2. Feather Dusters
3. Softies (Xenia and Mushrooms)
4. Euphyllia

I can't seem to keep acans, birdsnest, or goni/alveopora alive no matter what I do

My tank is SPS dominant but my love for big fleshy LPS still stronger than ever.

i have a mixed reef with there being a tie between zoas and SPS(would consider my tank to be more SPS dominated though since they grow more than my zoas)

I love them all!! You have to have a balance of all the above. It’s boring if you pick one and stick with it… my opinion of course.

I voted LPS because of all the movement you get with them. Second would be SPS, anemones.

I think they are all amazing in their own way and would love to keep them all, but I think I'm starting to come to the conclusion that softies are my speed.

There are some amazing softie tanks out there so going softie doesn't mean you have to have a boring tank. And they are just so much more forgiving! I had some sort of mystery "event" happen a week or so ago that damaged several SPS. I don't even know what it was!

I'm not giving up on the SPS that I have but I think I'm going to start moving to a more softie dominant tank with a few LPS because they are fun, too, and leave those crazy cool SPS corals for more knowledgeable folk!

I definitely have a mixed reef(Zoas, goniopora, acans, chalice, war coral, porites, euphyllia, duncans and RFA's) but if I just could choose one it would be SPS.

I'm aiming for a mixed reef. Selected softies because that's where selection by the highly scientific eeny, meeny, miny, mo, catch a... method took me :p

I really love most all corals. But euphylla are my fav.. Yesterday I saw this poor little coral at my LFS that looks like a cactus of which I know nothing about and turns out it is a blueridge coral. Either I was lucky that day or no one wanted the ugly duckling. I couldn't resist and bought it along with a hairy mushroom.
