what kind of corals do you prefer?
 

Personally, I like softies and Lps. the reasoning behind it is they are usually quite hardy, low maintenance and they "flow". I love to sit and watch the movement of my corals. I haven't got into sps not because I am cheap but because I view them as rocks. Some are very colourful but without the "dancing", I am not umm...amused by them. Maybe down the line I will get into them but IMO, nothing beats a simple colt coral, toadstools or a large torch.

Was the same, loved my xenia swaying in the current, didn't think it would happen but have since found SPS to be rather addicting.

Colorful ones :)

i like softies and LPS but sps are also good, but i like the swaying and movement from LPS and Softies

SPS all the way. I keep a couple of "dancing" corals to amuse people not impressed with SPS though

SPS mostly for the color, there isn't a lot of color available here and if it does manage to make it through its either immediately put in a store display tank and not for sale or you have to sell your first born to afford it. I found it much easier to get colorful fuzzy sticks as sometimes the brown ones color up nicely. With the advent of australian LPS making it to the west coast (but still not here) there is more available when I make it to the mainland and certainly tempting but I'm sticking with my sps tank (with a few LPS frags here and there).

What types of LPS are you guys having success with in a high current/flow enviornment ?

I prefer SPS....and when you have good polyp extension...they do "wave" sorta! I love the colors also, you just can't beat it, however I do miss the ease of an LPS or softie tank.....

I am an LPS and soft guy also. I am just setting up 4 Tunze 4055's to run on my profilux so I will have the back and forth wave action. However after taking a stab at SPS and seeing what some others have done. I can say I take my hat off to them.

I must say I prefer LPS and softies for several reasons, but mainly the ease of care. Also, as mentioned, it's very nice to watch corals flow in the current, add's a lot of movement to the tank. I also find LPS take up a nice chunk of space usually.

SPS are lots of fun, but are too much work for me (small system) They sure are cool though. They add awesome colour and structure to the reef tank.. I enjoyed keeping the various kinds I had. Mille's were among some of my favourites. They "danced" at least. SPS are also extremely and strangely fun to watch grow from a 1inch stick to a baseball sized colony... as well as the colour transformations they can take on.
