:

Green Bubble Tip Anemones (they keep splitting

):

Green Stylophora frag from IMAC, Acro frag and xenia- frags doubled in size over 4 months, can't wait to see in a year :

Green Clown Goby (not the best pic) in an acro frag-got 3 of these guys, they are really cool to watch:

Tubastrea - note the polyp upper right with new buds-frag was not doing well in frag tank so moved to reef, and now it's growing:

forestal · 11-20-2005, 04:30 PM

hope i'm not bugging y'all , just love to take pics and share them

Best shot so far of the anthias (lyretail) - they sit there lookin at me, then jump when i shoot - note Nemo (kids named him) under the BTA:

Better shot of the Green gonipora and hydnopora:

Left 2/3 of the tank, best pic i have to date, with color truer:

BTA, Green capricornis (tough to get color on that), Gold maxima clam, and someone peeking

:

Orange M. capricornis:
