If you are talking about SPS then I would suggest millepora.
They show the most movement for SPS IMO. Not to mention the colors of some millepora are amazing to me.
Also Hydnophora has good waving polyps but it can be kinda aggresive when it touches other corals.
Although I do have a few acros that have amazing fuzzy PE and the polyps do blow in the current. But you will notice the Millepora the most.

How difficult are Millepora to keep when compared to other SPS? I will start keeping an eye out for some colorful pieces.
What about frogspawn, etc LPS? Do they do okay in medium to strong currents? Are they an overly fast grower which could start encroaching on other SPS in the tank?

I'll have some pink Mille frags in the very near future once Acrosteve gets his tank going.
I agree the Mille's are nice, I have a pink and a bright yellow one which I have no idea what kind it is. I got it from the frag swap last year at CORA swap.
Frogspawn also show good movement but too much flow and you'll tear the flesh off so it's kinda iffy. Toadstool leathers also seem to show well. I have a white one right in front of a Tunze 6000 and it hasn't wanted anywhere else and has tripled in size.
I got frags of it too.
Once Steve gets going I have a lot of things to give back to him to help him get back to where his tank was two years ago.
Besides I think he used me as a backup in case something happened :lol:
Pocllipora does good with a lot of flow along with the birdsnest
Milles are relatively easy to keep IMHO
