What coral do you hate?

Uncle Bob · Jun 30, 2016

Mushrooms, and I don't care if they bounce.

I hate chalices i dont see the point in getting such an expensive coral that takes forever to grow.

Bpb · Jun 30, 2016

Same ones everyone has already said for sure, Kenya trees, cabbage leather, anthelia, discosoma shrooms, yellow polyps, Texas trash palys.

I dislike Homophyllia australis (what scoly's used to be). Not sure why but think its there unnatural colours and boring shape. Not that keen on acans either. I think if it looks like a child designed it it isn't for me.
Would love to put a nice queen angel in this tank and see how long I could go without having to feed it.

Whoa that's raw... Scolys will always have their place IMO... Have you ever fed one? They're like a giant Venus Fly Trap

Everybody is entitled to their own opinion though, I won't judge

Mine would have to be Xenia. It grows way to fast and you cannot give it away. Since you don't want to dispose of any living creature I just avoid it.

Wilsoni · Jun 30, 2016

I can't specifically say I hate any coral in particular. There are many I simply won't keep though...

Pectinia happens to be the main one I have no desire to keep. It reminds me of candle wax or melted crayons.

Wilsoni · Jun 30, 2016

Actually I take that back... The one type of coral I hate is fake coral. There's nothing worse than seeing fake coral in an aquarium...

Can't believe Rev hatew cyphastrea! SMH

I don't really hate any "kind" of coral but I do hate my neon green pocillipora. I've given "frags"...better known as babies dropped all over my tank......to everyone in my reef club and there are still 20+ mini colonies. Can't get rid of them!

FL_Reefer · Jun 30, 2016

Goni's! No matter what I do or where I put them in my tank they never will do good for me, so frustrating cause I love them. It's a love hate relationship.

cobraz · Jun 30, 2016

GPS... every new hobbyist thinks it's cool until it over runs the tank.

donnievaz · Jun 30, 2016

Kenya Tree. Luckily it's never been in any of my tanks. I've watched it completely overrun my neighbor's tank and I don't think he'll ever get rid of it without nuking the tank and starting over... I've had my own issues with Xenia and red shrooms but I've been able to manage them via chisel and hammer.

Mine is condy anemone cause it never stays out and encroached on all my other coral

d2mini · Jun 30, 2016

Kenya trees and similar coral.
And anything that is solely brown/tan in color..

Anemone's aren't coral. They are invertebrates.

Psiber_Syn · Jun 30, 2016

Yeah your right ...... Still hate them

To fit the form id have to say bnests my tank kills them every time Pocilla,stylo no problems but the best always does eventually

galaxea - I love the look of it, but I always cheap out and by the smallest frag I can buy. I then sit there and watch my other fast growers take off and realize my galaxea pieces will round into what I hoped when I give my 40th anniversary update.
