Default Show me the craziest SPS you've ever seen!

I'm on a hunt (albeit a very slow one) for incredible SPS. I'm trying to track down SPS that are just totally out there and completely different (like the Reef Raft Avenger. I don't care if it's a named coral or not, just needs to be out of the ordinary. And I don't consider red planet out of the ordinary... Ever since my neighbor's dog got one I've considered them common (but still very pretty).

And better yet, if you own said coral, PM me and let's talk.

But for now, let's have a show and tell of the most insane SPS you've ever seen!

My northern delight is pretty original. Green pigment streaks through it as well.

I am into multi-color SPS. The following picture was from an online Canadian store. It was in one of their shipments a while ago. I haven't seen it again. Still searching for one that is close to that color(s).

I hate to pop bubbles but the colour isnt that accurate on that picture. Also a.abrotanoides are especially known to be incredibly hard to keep long term. They do come in regularly in maricultured shipments though.

I got that piece from Burc and it was not even close to that colour.

It is all green now, and I still have it.

...that was my last transaction with him

no bubbles burst, LOL
When I order corals from an online store, I don't usually have high hope of WYSIWYG due to various reasons.
