He shoots... he scores!!!

Well, I decided that I'd give Clams Direct one more try, since Barry is such a great guy...
New arrivals were up this morning, so this time we quickly found the stuff we wanted, and luckily all were still in the cart when we were checking out.
Anyway, I'll get right to the pix... and stop all the BS'ing...

Here's the first (and my favorite) a 3" Pohnpei T. maxima

That last one is awesome! I like the 1st and 3rd the best, the second is really close, but I like all the different colors in the others

Yeah, I'm just a little excited...
Christmas in April...

The first and third are my favorite too... the second one my wife picked out... gotta let her in on the fun too...

I'll definitely be posting comparison pix... I'm sure they'll look a little different since they'll be viewed at a different angle, but like with SPS, half the fun is seeing what colors they are in your tank.

I also got some zoanthids in this morning which I'll be posting pix of once they're fully acclimated and opened... the tank just keeps getting more and more colorful.

i say this as my best advice to a beginner. do not,,,and i repeat,,,,,DO NOT look at my tank as an example....i have a well practised eye, decades of experience, and a trunkload of failures to allow me to force the issue and get away with things most cannot~
