Looking good :) Curious about why you think that is a vermiculata? As I said, I am not so good with the names so I am keen to learn. I looked up the vermiculata and wouldn't think it was. My best guess was a convexa. Here is a link to the vermiculata that I was looking at:

Thank you Dan. It is a great site I should bookmark it :) I was looking at this site as well: http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/p...97&pcatid=2497 I think they ae very close and for sure it is tough to identify. Two things have leaded me to think it is vermiculata is:
1. The branches are formed from small type pockets and the are longer than convexa
2. The tentacules are extended longer than convexa which makes it very hairy which I like very much.
Please see convexa type http://fragd.it/product/view/1003 and compare to the frag picture above.

But it is my guess

Better picture of my pair Bonnie and Clyde, as they travel all around and already finished a star leg in 2 days.

Love that blasto and shrimps! So are Bonnie&Clyde temporary or permanent? Do you plan to feed them starfish forever?

Thank you Kien. Think permanent, depends how I can find star fish for feeding, but want to kind of teach them 2 legs per week :) I was reading they should be ok with this diet. I should reasearch where I can find starfish cheap :)

So, skin for my stand is done, first my corals in. Still have PO4 at 0.05 level that I have to work it out. Looking for BioPellets reactor to fix it:
