Yellow coral recommendations

[gmdcdvm]

Hello,
Alex and I were texting and he brought true yellow corals. Got me thinking of adding something truly yellow to the tank. Looking at SPS, less likely maybe a yellow leather, or maybe one of those NPS yellow corals. Any suggestions or anyone have any frags if something cool?

Yellow is a tough one to come across, following along for suggestions.

Golden Rod Anacropora is one, although to be honest, it tends more towards green in my tank.

What is the most YELLOW sps? Photo would be great

I think that a yellow color sps is very hard to find. Sometimes a light hint of yellow color would just turn green over time. Can someone post the most yellow color sps that you know or have? Thanks.

There is a thread with different options. Yellow could easily become green depending on lighting in your tank. I have yellow leathers.

I saw a few pictures of yellow gorgonians some of those actually looked stunning. Maybe worth a google search.

Yellow porites is nice if your light is on the whiter side

The Fiji yellow leathers will only look at way under full spectrum lighting so keep that in mind. Note that I saw these in the wild at just 3-5 feet getting insane amounts of light. Probably why they liked the old Iwasaki 6500k bulbs so much.

Horrific pics, but … pretty sure you’re not going to find much that is closer to yellow

Walt Disney of course, and I second the vote for Goldenrod Anacropora - a very striking yellow under the right conditions. Beach bum monti is also very yellow although I wouldn't recommend any encrusting corals

Just got this guy, under 14k halide. PAR value of 600+ gonna be interesting to see what comes of this.

I have goldenrod and beach bum over-growing in my tank if you want big chunks Gerry @gmdcdvm. And I’m nearby

Lemon drop. Not true yellow but close.

Pink lemonade acro is definitely yellow with pink polyps. Fox flame has very yellow tips.

I have an Anacropora which has stayed true yellow through multiple tanks. Polyps have no hint of red, so I don’t think it’s goldenrod.

I have an extra piece which was partially anemone stung but it’s yours if you want it.

If I can find my way out there some day maybe Invictus, but that frag remains geographically undesirable for now. Maybe the next swap...
