Beautiful healthy coral. Can't speak for joshporksandwic, but based on the fluorescent blue rock base, may be an all blue or reefbrite xho lighting for picture. Regardless, wish I could pull those colors out of any acro. Amazing reef keeping skills

Red Planet is the best acro I have raised along with green slimer. Pretty bulletproof. On the RP, the higher the light the more pink/ red the color and as lighting gets lower the base goes green. Jmo

I would have to say anything by Reef Raft as they sell SPS for as much as $2,000 for a Half Inch Frag (Maybe they sell for more just that has been the most expensive that I have personally seen myself).

They do have lovely colored corals but acros don't have to be expensive to be spectacular. Lots of beauties that are pretty darn reasonable yet stunning, red planet for sure, strawberry shortcake are just a couple that have been mentioned.

Red dragon

Purple monster, strawberry shortcake

Red planet

Bubblemgum millie

Hawkins echinata

Its a long list......,

That is very true but the OP asked which Acros were the Most Popular and that would be the Most Expensive (Hence the High Price Tag).

If they were not in demand and popular than they would not be selling for a few thousand dollars a Frag.

Most popular...that would be endless. Here are two of my favorites:

Oregon Tort because it's IMO the slowest growing. My colony will be 3 years at RAP in October

Red Dragon because it's IMO one of the fastest growing.

pretty happy to see the list as I have all of them except Romel's...I would also add Setosa to the list.

I fell in love with the true ice and fire as soon as i saw it. Now the colony is over 12in. I have many reefers try to get me to cut it but still it is beautiful.

Good luck finding Garys Jawz Dropperz. It's LE, Rare, Tyree-FOXX-Steve Irwin Lineaged. There are only three known pieces that hidden at the Fountain of Youth, The Bermuda Triangle, and packed alongside the Arc of the Covenant.:nerd: Of course one of the RR may have one as well under a different name...:tongue:

From what I have seen and read it changes color with lighting it even goes to turn green sometimes

Ahhh i was trying to figure out why the new growth on the plug of my red planet was green. The stick is still stunning red, but it has this green base. Good to know !
