What are the HOTTEST Corals on the Market Right Now (July 2022) according to Reef2Reef?

[mandyvan]

It was sold to me by Salty Underground as Green Shaggy Leptoseris. The general consensus from people I have shown is that it is actually a Pavona. I'm not enough of an expert to say one way or the other.

Looks like something I was told is a Pavona, just looked at mine earlier and admired the green speckles.

 

[Mark Bradley]

I just love the Fox Coral

 

[DVal]

I’m a Lps guy myself!

Love those acans. What's the name and where did you find those?

 

[Julbra]

It’s like asking parents who their favourite child is. I love all my corals equally.

 

[Susan Edwards]

I chose sps as I just got 10 sps corals (1 act a lps) but I'd put myself at a tie of sps and lps as my next coral buys will be wavy lps's like hammers and torches. But I also love acans and meat corals and they are also on my list. I have a huge plate that just amazes me

pavona. i have one just like this and it is also encrusting

 

[Rmckoy]

I would say meat corals, bounce mushrooms, and torches are probably the 'top 3' (based off pricing)

Meat corals.
Seriously they used to be a $30 coral .
although I haven’t owned many of the different coloured ones .

 

[Mushroomsyo]

Mushrooms #1
LPS a close 2nd for me.

very nice. I just got one as well. Love it

 

[Kylesreeftank]

In general, probably Torches, anemones, and zoanthids.

In the upper echelons, bounces, splices, acropora in general

 

[Perry]

Most acros fall in price, this one doesn't, and for good reason, it's a finicky piece. But dang when she's happy she's a looker!!! RRC JD

 

[Reefbuds]

Acans, zoas and anemones never get old. Mixed reef ftw

 

[Wasabiroot]

I feel like acros aren't going anywhere but there seems to be a resurgence of interest in hobby classics. Shrooms and high end blastos seem to be making an appearance, along with harder to come by softies like Japanese nepthea or weeping willow toadstools. Torches seem to be cooling off a bit and their prices have gotten a bit better

Thought I'd share this acanthophylia,which took picture at local lfs as they had big massive event,opening of upstairs shop expansion and all corals cheaper than usual as in massive sale over that weekend,but still £1450.00 British pounds which I believe is best part off $2000.00 American dollars lol,it was good 30cm across by 20cm front to back and 15 cm high and very pretty coral and massive and has ultra in the name so must be worth that much money right ^_^
And would dread to think how much it would off been before the event or if not sold,after the event lol

I voted SPS but honestly think LPS probably better looking but I think the extra winning attraction to SPS is the challenge of keeping the coral alive then making it thrive.

Be careful to try and get it isolated onto one rock. It spreads really well and it's VERY difficult to remove from a rock. VERY VERY difficult. :0)

This is where it is. It is on a separate rock but has almost encrusted it. It might be starting to spread to main rock. Will the sps keep it in check? Or will it grow over their bases. It is very happy where it is so I don't want to upset it lol's.

 

[LagoonParadise22]

My opinion:
3. Torch coral
2. Rainbow chalice
1.walt disney

What species is that? It’s stunning

Looks like a pavona. I have a big one and two frags currently growing out in my tank if anyone is interested.
