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!

Yeah I never see fox corals talked about!
They’re so unloved I don’t even have a decent picture of mine. It looks much better in person.

honestly i didnt even realize they were a thing.... i feel like ive seen these a few times in a LFS but just walked right past thinking it was a bubble or cabbage coral that was just not happy.....

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.
