WHY DO GREEN CORALS GET SUCH A BAD RAP?!?!

I feel that so many corals come in green and they have amazing color but when setting up my tank I hit my green max fast and after avoided green to balance my tank with other colors. Still looking for more yellow and blue.
 
I love the old fashion Green Slimer! I think every tank should have one.

OG Green slimmer is actually a really coral that you don't see too often any more. The growth structure is amazing!!

I didn’t know that green corals were considered a “not preferred” coral. To me they are bright and add to the tank. There are several that work well for those of us that enjoy our tanks but require a bit less on the side of daily fussing. We can enjoy our tanks without knowing what is trending. I also love the softies that give movement to the tank.
 
I have just started the process of adding corals to my new 240. I never thought about this before, but boy there sure is a lot of green out there. After adding my first batch of corals, I looked at the tank and realized I needed other colors besides green. What isn’t green? Plenty of non green zoas out there, but I wanted to add some movement, and it seems like all the euphyllia is green!
