    Love the Frogspawn. I bought a 2 headed frag of Frogspawn about 6 months ago. It now has 7 heads and continues to grow.

    I don't know about you but I like Brain Corals and Acans. Good luck!

    for softies theres GSP, Xenia, shrooms, and if you want to venture into hardy SPS if you have the right conditions and equipment i would say birdsnest, that was my first SPS and i find it just as easy as my zoas

    I love frogspawns and hammers.
    Nice corals! Great to hear about the service. Be sure to tell them you support 3reef sponsors. ;)

    Anyway, to answer your question - how about a Fox coral?

    Always honored when the big man replies to my post....

    Gave 3reef a plug immediately with Reef Empire... and sent them the link to my post boasting of their awesome service.

    Fox Coral is cool. Never seen that one before.

    Acans.... holy cow are they expensive... Drs. Foster and Smith Diver's Den® - Acanthastrea lordhowensis

    I am sure there are more affordable ones.... but WOW...

    How hard are neon green bubble corals???

    The Fox is a definite candidate. I'll post some others that look interesting and see what you all think.

    Yes, Acan colonies are pretty expensive, but frags are pretty affordable.
