Looking for some more of the odd ball color sun corals. I have a solid yellow, orange,and black, now looking for the wild ones. Ive seen pics of a almost lime green/yellow and a few other wild ones. Can anyone get some?

From time to time they will send some variant colors in the end they are all orange... even the yellow ones are really just variants.. I know for us anyway we have never seen on list a lime green or them saying that they have some crazy color..Might have been lighting who knows..we will be on the look out though cool crazy stuff is coming out everyday

For me they also change.
The ones that I purchased as orange always turn into Firecrackers for me. They grow, they do well but they all end up firecrackers (pink/orange/yellow rather than orange with yellow)
I do have a solid yellow one I got from Mr Cob.
That one is solid yellow and has stayed solid yellow.
Clone mentioned that some of the black sun corals have fluorescent green tentacles under the right lighting.

I used to have a black one that had forest green tentacles. Beautiful piece.

The "walking dendros" Heteropsammia cochlea come to mind as a greenish sun coral relative. These relatively new to the trade Aussies are available to us currently - could order you some for $80 apiece for Thurs arrival.

Just got a collector's choice email from a non-sponsor and wanted to post it because it's such a neat color variation:
