What coral do you feel like doesn't get enough love?

[Gumbies R Us]

This can be in regards to specific coral or overall species (zoas, acans etc...). There are a lot of different corals we can have in our tank, and they range from a variety of colors, shapes, and sizes. I am wondering what is a specific coral species or group of coral you feel doesn't get talked about enough? Let's see those coral!

certain LPS like the tracy/wellso/cynaria/etc. you see them in tanks but not talked about regularly (or perhaps i'm not checking?)

Fox corals ? Where are they ?

They have the most unique polyps , they’re like a bubble coral that you can frag

Me and my life love toadstool corals, the one we have in our tank is one of my wife’s favorite coral

They’re so unloved I don’t even have a decent picture of mine. It looks much better in person.

I feel like its also a super rarity to find at an LFS. Its like a hidden gem find!

I offered them at some frag swaps in my area. No one gives them a second look. Maybe because they are a plain green or beige color. I ended up giving them to a lfs.

I have a small frag, but I will be looking for one at reefapalooza this year.
I think if you can get a colony size of a fox coral, it will be a star coral of a tank.

I’m so glad that tidal gardens has a good selection of them.

All the vibrant colored ones tho are all NPS

I feel like gsp gets too much hate, I kinda like the way it looks in a tank when it's fully grown out
