Fungia are fairly cheap, easy and colorful

Maybe a Cynarina?

I just added a Red Ultra Button to my tank and it looks great. Not too pricey in Australia, not sure of the cost for you however (North America I am guessing).

The Yellow Scroll coral is a classic, offers great color, is a slow but steady grower, and it is often overlooked these days. For reds its hard to beat Acans and Favia. The most brilliant orange that I know is the Tangerine Leptoseris and it grows like a weed. There is a Green Star Polyp variant that has a yellow center, and one that has a blue center, lots of color! But nothing beats my Yuma mushroom coral for intensity, except maybe my Bali Green Slimer -- but that's an acropora.

Thanks for clarifying,

Indeed , he is loaded with hard to keep goodies...I apologize Drew!

It’s cool. Why’d you think theyre hard to keep? All i did was toss them in my tank and thats it. Maybe im lucky idk.

@Devaji ... me too. I like them swaying in the current. Im planning to add more lps and maybe some hardy sps later.

Vincent i dig the orange one you got. Yours fat and nice. Looking good my friend.

Tastee you hit the jackpot with that hitchiker. Wish i have your luck sometime lol
Will look into lepto too

I'm in the same boat. Have gone all LPS from the start and love them. They are doing well so wanting to try some harder SPS. Picked up a orange/pick monti cap and a reverse sunset monti last weekend to see how they do. So far so good
