Hi guys, I'm getting ready to start full blown reefing and would like to know which are your most prized sps corals and which are ones to be avoided. I'm trying to learn at an incredible rate and any input would be greatly appreciated..."thanks"

Although I tend to like them the most, I would have to say that wild colonies are probably the ones to most avoid. They tend to require better water parameters and flow and even more stability than aquacultured corals. Even with all of that you have a 50/50 chance of survival.

As far as most prized, that is really up to the individual because everybody has different tastes. I would recommend ignoring all of the "super rare" and "LE" coral fads and just acquire what appeals to you.

I love millis/prostratas as they come in a wide variety of colors. These frags have always kept their color. I also am partial to encrusting montis.
