I've lost a rainbow chalice. Also out about $300 (which was only 2 frags) worth of avengers acro. That's just the start of the list.

Nice ssc Tony!

Nicest Coral for me was my frog spawn. It was only 2 heads and it was looking great...then one day it all sucked it and "died". I was going to remove the rock it was on but left it in, after 2 months a few small heads came back...6 months later it had 15 heads and was double the size when opened up.

Then I transferred tanks 4 months ago and it "Died" again. But today I have 6 heads on the original body. Along with 3 different branch's which broke off have 2-3 heads each as well....So while I havent really "lost" this coral it sure has given me some stress over the last 3 years. Easily my favorite coral.

Other than that I have only really lost cheap corals like a few small zoa frags, Cabbage Leather Coral (really cool :() and Xenia...it wont grow no how for me

Coral
 
Me it was a 5" crazy red and bright green tip forest fire red digi colony. I didn't test a batch of new water I made (from the tap), needless to say it sent my tank into a crash. Never used tap water since for anything that has to do with my reef.

Moved my 75 into a 150. Lost most of it. I can't even remember all the one-off losses of nice pieces, there's been so many over the years.
