How about some corals that have thrived in multiple tanks and have been aquacultured for some time.....not wild or maricultred colonies and frags.
 
A couple of my favorites

ORA Pearlberry:

Bravo! The classics are proven. Who cares what your wild colony looks like if the color and hardiness haven't been PROVEN long term. Acropora are sensitive species and some just do not do well in an aquarium for what ever reason.
 
These are some but certainly not all my favorites.

3 favorites I've had in my tank 8 years & distributed too many frags to count. As long as I own Sps these three will be in my tank..........hardy,beautiful colors & interesting growth forms--

NICE!!! Love the first and last corals!! colors are very intense. Great job!
 
very nice palettas pink tip!!!! A must have and one of my favorites in my tank as well. Fast grower once it takes off, but that takes some time.
 
Nice, very healthy looking corals, makes me wish I had a camera and my sps were this bright and shiny!!
 
Not sure what this one is (most of mine are from Steve Garrett) but I love the polyp extension on it.

now that I have good lighting, I've picked up a few SPS frags. They are GORGEOUS! I'm hooked.

My first trip to the LFS yielded a Tyree Montipora Setosa and an Ice Age Staghorn. Both are beautiful. However, there was another montipora that I was in love with. Couldn't get it outta my head. I've been in the LFS 2 or 3 more times since then, and I always went straight for that piece. Had to stop in and bring it home yesterday. It's a Purple Haze Montipora. Absolutely amazing colors.

Mr. TD2K is working on a macro lens for his camera, so hopefully we can get some great pics soon.
