kyla bidwell · Nov 21, 2015

Just curious what is you favorite sps coral? I need help figuring out what to get next. I have all the common stuff like monti, digitata, acro, mille, birdsnest pacillapora and setosa. I think im leaving something out but anyway, I want some ideas! Oh I have Hollywood stunner too. I have several variations of most of these. I want to get some slcoral with unique growth patterns. I like odd shapes. any idas would be appreciated. thanks!

A sponsor on R2R has a SPS i think called "Pink Floyd". Absolute show stopper if you can find it. Wish i could be more help.

Green slimer, lol......

Followed closely by Oregon tort, red planet, and pink lemonade in that order. No serious SPS reef would be complete without it...

I have red planet, green slimer and setosa already. They are still frags. Im very excited to see the growth pattern on the red planet now! Twon8 I hope mine looks like that in a couple years!

I wouldn't keep an Sps tank without a Paletta pink tip. Very hardy, really nice thicket type growth and of course colorful.

No such thing as a favorite I am a acroholic. Never so one I didn't like.

My favorite that has been with me for more than 7 years- My Ultimate Blue Berry Acropora

Beautiful! Im a huge fan of deep and bright blue in reefs. Any shade of blue actually. That is a gorgeous piece you have! Any chance you will frag it? What would you consider its growth rate to be?

Do you have any idea what the name of that is? Or what it resembles? I love the deep color to it.
