What are your favorite classic sticks?

[Rmckoy]

green Slimer for sure gets my vote, and suprisingly not easy to get your hands on nowadays at your LFS like in the past.

One of my lfs has a Huge colony in their display .
every so often they frag it and put the newly cut pieces for sale . Quite often the branches that are now new standing frags are bare on one side from being shadowed for so long .

Red planet ?

You are lucky! I have about 4-5 LFS and none of them have had slimer in years.

Maybe water issue? Running activated carbon may cause issues with those corals as well.

Water tested and does not or should not be the issue. I have a 2 tanks system with a 40 B attached with AI hydras.. this tank is growing coral.. no sticks yet. but LPS and softies. I cant get those to grow in the Kessil tank either.. so water parameters does not appear to be the problem.. Have dialed back the strength of the Kessil as well and still not having happy results.. I dont have par measurements Kessil is 8 inches over top of tank and am running it about 40% color and 60% intensity.. AI Hydras are at 100% blues 5% red, 60% actinic violet, and what is the other one.. anyway.. its driving me a bit nuts.

Neon Green Birdsnest (ORA) has always been a favorite of mine! Red Planet comes in a close second... with the Oregon Tort taking #3!

Oregon Tort & Green Slimer. First SPS I put in each of my tanks when they were ready.

 

[homer1475]

All already mentioned but by far some of my favorites. They just look good no matter what lighting your using, whether it's more white, or windex blue.

After seeing many pics of the classic red planet, I need to find me some of that one.

I have the german blue digi. Its on the bottom of my 120. Since I fired the Halides up 4 months ago it is now reaching for them, lol.

Yea lfs slimer colony died in a crash. No other local ones either.
Mine finally is going up. Based for a year then the last 4 months since Halides have been its been upward bound.

I can't give it away. I have a bunch of frags and my LFS seem to not want them. I love the green Slimer. I think every tank needs one.
