Love the gold torch Myka, would love to see one in person as those don't come to Canada very often. Would have to say my 2 show pieces are my Green Formosa (Thanks to Lobsterboy) and my Red/ Teal Indo Scoly (From Elite).

The Formosa didn't grow up in my tank but the scoly went from being 4 inches to larger than a dinner plate when fully expanded.

I've been trying to get my hands on Sponge Bob. :p Nice piece indeed, and a good size too.

Found it at J&L it was sitting in there tank for about a month. It looked all lime green under there lights. I too have the Gold Aussie Torch and it is definetly a nice torch. I bought that at J&L also. I have a couple Aussie Prizms that are nice as well.

Not the sweetest but one of the biggest: My Pipe Organ Coral measured at 15" across and 13" high.

You should keep that bottle in there and grow an acropora beer crown :lol:. That thing is MASSIVE lance, how long have you had it for?

I've had it since Nov. '08. I can only take a little credit for its size. Marie had it for years and when it got too large she gave it too me. It has grown quite a bit since I've had it though.

Wow that's huge how big was it when you got it?? Very nice:)

If thats in reference to my bubble coral, it was a couple inches when purchased. Covered close to 2ft. sq. when fully opened. Those were large Blue Striped Cinnamon,s living in it, called Bob & Alice after the english cartoon. :lol:

However I kind of cheated, as I lost the coral a couple years ago, either from a pin cushion urchin mauling it or an alk. problem. Either way it got an infection. It was 12 yrs. old when I lost it.

You never said present or not, so I posted it anyways. :mrgreen: I use to be a pretty good aquarist. Not sure what the heck happened. :lol:I cant keep any corals alive long enough or sell them anymore to have nice pics like you guys. :lol:

Hope it was ok to post it in your thread. :smile:

Post away my friend lovin seeing all these pics , I'm workin on a large bubble also probably about 1/3 what yours is lol mine didn't take the move to well colour turned but it's makin a full recovery:)

Love the pipe and the bubble guys. Those things are/were MASSIVE.

Good to see you posting here. You have a thread about your tank here???

Hey Dave. Hope things with the new place are going well.

No tank thread yet.....sometime when I get around to it though.

I would say my fav is my Duncan, this is an old pic and now it has around 100 heads.

I'm a big fan of torches and man is that one a beauty!!

My hammer coral is probably my favorite for now, my lime green candy cane is quite nice too. Still fairly new at the game so i will be expanding as time goes on.

NICE Monti Wes!! Get me a frag some day?

1200 views but only 30 pics let's see those pics guys!! :) nice coral everyone!!!

I know i've posted this before but its still 1 of my favorites.:biggrin:
http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/k.../DSC_4524a.jpg

whoa, now that is different! I've never seen anything like that before (colour wise)!

Nice piece Marlin! I have the same Meteor Shower Cyphastrea, but mine is much lighter colored I think it gets too much light.

Thanks Kien! My gold Torch is the first I ever saw, but since I bought it I have seen similar pieces for sale at Blue World in Edmonton and Bayside here in Saskatoon. Mine is more gold than the other pieces I have seen, but maybe they would color up. As far as I know they only come in on Australian shipments.

Here is one of my nicest SPS. It is a Candlelight Acro. It is EXTREMELY difficult to care for. It very easily becomes a big brown blob (with great PE lol). This pic is from Sept '09 when I first bought it. It slowly faded into a brown blob. It is just recently starting to look like it may color up once again. I have my fingers crossed that I can post an update photo in the future that will be much more impressive. :D

Those Magicians are sweet. I had a 3 polyp colony that slowly melted in a week. It was so sad. :'(
