What is your favorite Leather Coral?

When I was new to the hobby I always loved the look of the Yellow Fiji Leather and to be honest I still do. I really only like the super yellow colored ones though. What about you? Any leathers you like? Share a picture!

The Tyree Neon Green Leather Toadstool.

Acts as my makeshift Nem, and it doesnt sting anything or move.

I'd go with either the green Palau Nephthea sp. or a green Sinularia sp. for things that can be maintained in the aquarium. Strawberry corals (Sclerophylla sp.) are gorgeous, but don't do well.

I still love the look of leathers too. I like the yellow fiji leathers but never had luck with them. I currently have 5 different types in my tank that I've had ranging from 7-13 yrs. You can see all five in this pic. My favorite is the one on the bottom right and here is a closeup of it.

Are all fiji yellow leathers that yellow/bright? It's hard to come across yellow corals, so I'd really like a piece like that in my display. The neon green toadstools are awesome too, but there are just so many other green corals that they don't stand out as well.
