Its hard to find non green corals.. Need add some yellows and more orange. I have yellow polyps and orange rics but they havent grown big enough to be seen on full tank shots yet.

non green corals
Hahaha, I talk about this with some of the guys at the reef club. I have a much higher success rate with green than any other coral. They survive and grow better. I have 4 colors of poccilipora. The green one is easily 3x the mass under nearly identical conditions in the same tanks. I have killed every acro except an ugly brown one and Frogskin..which does amazing. Over time I have picked up more colorful Acans, riccordia/yuma, scroll coral....plenty of colorful montipora as well.

I like the look of the tank!

I have some yellow and orange but slower growth. I keep losing cool looking purple montipora. It's frustrating

I just switched lights on my tank, and some of my monti just crapped out. I have great luck with the purple stylo. It grows like a weed, but seems to kill anything it touches even for a moment.
