Beautiful! Really nice clam too! Is the purple tipped coral the flower pot?

How do you 'sneak' corals in? My husband notices anything new I put in the tank

He even notices when I rearrange something!

bigbratt · 02-25-2008, 10:55 AM

the purple tip is a malu anemone. the flowerpot is the yellow one.

well after being told I could not buy anything else for my tank for awhile I bought the flowerpot and just put it in the tank and didn't say anything, if he noticed it right away he didn't say anything for a few days and then it was just to ask questions on it...so I got away with it.

haha i have sneaked the past 5 frags into my tank lol my gf has yet to notice

bigbratt · 02-25-2008, 03:29 PM

I could get away with it more if I bought ones close to the same colour as others in the tank and just put them close together, then he wouldn't notice as he's colour blind, he'd just think that they were growing really fast.

Well it's been a month since I last updated this so I guess it's time for more pic's. Everything is doing wonderful. I have added a few new things...a branching brain, a fox coral, a hammer, although I don't think that I have managed to get any good pic's of them yet.
Here are a few updated pic's

Looking good! Nice Sun coral!

sasquatch · 03-25-2008, 09:30 AM

how you making out with the goni?

bigbratt · 03-25-2008, 09:36 AM

sas, which one is the goni....?

Anselth · 03-25-2008, 10:17 AM

Goniopora is a flowerpot coral.

bigbratt · 03-25-2008, 10:40 AM

Thanks Anselth, it's doing wonderful, opens up and looks almost double in size when open.

bigbratt · 05-12-2008, 10:03 PM

wow, it's been awhile since I've updated this. Well it's changed alittle (a couple of times I think) I now have 2 golden head sleeper gobies, so of course I had to move everything around, man can they ever create a sand storm. The anemone decided on Saturday that it had to move to the other side of the tank after being where it was for 5 months, so I had to move things around to accomidate it which was ok in the end as I like it better this was. Oh and for Mother's Day we ordered a custom size sump as the one I have really isn't working (hubby did bubble trap wrong)oops, so rather then redo bubble trap he decided he'd just make a new one that is made for the stand. Hopefully we will see that in a couple of weeks...I really hate microbubbles so hopefully changing the sump to have the bubble trap go the right way will take care of that problem (but hey for a first time, he did pretty good) Here's some pic's and I will try and post some of the sun coral when it opens up.
