Most hardy would be some mushies I have
My most sought after are micromussa. <Also blastomussa, favia, Acanthastrea, and anything with a head around a polyp
My favorite in my tank is my Toxic Spill Micromussa.

Most hardy is almost always schrooms. My current favorites are the brain on my pic which is about 10 in across when fully open, and my branching frogspawn which have grown from a small piece to about 15 branches covering a foot in my tank to the point where fish live and hide within it.

This is a tough one, lets see
Favorite coral/Most sought after corals: I would have to say either a nice montipora, or some colorfall Zoos.
Most hardy coral: Well...I would have said my 4 year old colt coral, but most of it has died due to brown jelly...though it is still around and kicking in the form of daughter colonies. I think that nothing beats the sex drive of xenia...hah. _________ Tank Specs:
55 Gallon Mixed Reef
48" Tek Light: 4-54W T5 HO Fluorescents
Bulbs:
1 x 54w Fiji Purple T5 HO Fluorescent
