Corals that Glow/Fluoresce?
One of the most interesting things for me with corals is seeing them/their zooxanthellae glow/fluoresce under actinics or moonlights. It adds a new aspect to sw that is I never saw in fw. I am just starting to populate my tank with corals now and just have green candycanes that show this characteristic. Can anyone recommend other corals that also fluoresce well?

anything that is green or yellow will brighten up. lots of LPS and Leathers do that

High quality open brains & scolymias also fluoresce very well.
Bright green wall hammer/anchors do too. Most brightly coloured LPS fluoresce under actinic/moonlights/blue/20000k lights.

Don't forget the mushrooms. Some of them fluoresce nicely.
