    This seems like it will be a fun thread (and useful to those of us who are still somewhat new to reefing). What is your favorite coral and why? If you can, please post pics or links to pics (that will help those of us who have no idea what to call some of these things).

    I love xenias at the moment. Pulsing xenias look like a bunch of clapping hands

    Hands down a healthy elegance---I just feel they're extraordinarily beautiful.

    Fuzzy sticks. All varieties. I just love acropora and millepora.
