Colorful Soft Corals?

Mine becomes tan before shedding, takes a week or two then comes back bigger & brighter yellow coloration.
 
If I could only keep this crap colorful(as it faded in the picture shown,compare it to the other two pics)....
When somebody finds out how,
then it might be sold to the US mainland since it's legal to sell and beyond abundant.

Only reason I'm posting is that I'm hoping it's something more colorful than your(as in what you can find) average anthellia.

I still haven't seen a toadstool or cabbage that I'd consider brightly colored - Prove me wrong! Anybody have pics of their bright soft corals? Post them!!! Anybody got a good pic of the incredible hulk toadstool? that looks like it might be nice.

this is the Tyree neon green at the top, and the Japaneses neon green on the bottom. is this green bright enough for you?

Macclellan, you picture of Cespitularia doesnt quite look like Cespitularia to me, it looks more like either a Clove or Anthelia.
 
I never knew gorgonians where softies... for some reason i thought they where non-photo SPS. Hm. The most vibrant thing i have would be my blue cloves and my red rhodactis. Maybe i'll get some pictures tomorrow? Someone has to have some fancy zoa's to show off.
 
First day in tank. You can see how smashed in it is compared to the above pic. Shipping was not kind to this coral! The large rock they shipped with it was not anchored to anything in the bag. I was expecting lots of slime, but surprisingly none. As you can see the color is unreal. I'm hoping that it will perk up for me soon!

I love this yellow with purple polyps stereonepthea. It's photosynthetic and easy to keep once settled in.

NICE pic lora!

I love the Stereonepthya colonies I have in my tank as well....they are beautiful corals!!!
