lastlight's 97 (lights out)

lastlight · #1 12-13-2010, 11:36 PM

I just inspected that coral again and polyps are now out and i can't see any bugs and I looked hard. This leads me to believe I've had them all along...that it is possible I've missed them. This coral is growing very fast too.

I'm going to still try and get some interceptor for future dips but doubt I'm going to treat the tank right now. I'll watch this coral and the tank as a whole and see. Growth and coloration has been great especially lately. I didn't have plans to add more sps either. I was into phase 2 which was lps and zoas.

At any rate cat's out of the bag isn't it? My tank is SICK =)

Some new pics. First some of the acans I already had from Greg:

Duncans from Greg. Already have 2 new heads on this side...no idea about other side.

New zoas. I added lots more but they either melted away or the one or two polyps left didn't photo well.

Love my Clash of the Titans Favia from Greg:

Some new acans I picked up from him last night as well as a tiny little piece of his green-polyp toadstool. I was over pretty late and saw his night-time lighting over his toadstool. The thing GLOWS.

Some new fishies:

My boy Cole:

That little frag I plastered to my overflow is liking life:

Thanks it's a Nikon D80 with a kit lens. I need to borrow a macro lens again so I can take some nicer ones.

Yeah you did and I also giggled like a schoolgirl. We're both out of line!

Thanks btw. I still really don't like my livestock shots for some reason?

I realized today the tank's a little over a year old. It's funny my wife decorated with the same caution tape for halloween this year: it's in the before and afters lol. I also tried out my top down box... I'm not too great with it but I did a dump of the ones I took anyways.

One thing I've come to terms with (maybe it's just an issue with my tank) is that all the corals can't look their best at the same time. Some look better now than they ever have and some have dulled or faded.

Before and afters:

Top-downs:

And my gorg just cuz:

After 2 more visits to the CoralMaster himself I wanted to post more pics. Previously I had picked up some toadstool which didn't photograph well and last night I grabbed 2 zoas and a green ric. here we go:

And this is a funny shot for two reasons. One my blenny is a real clown. He's hiding in his man-cave sporting a mustache. Two this frag I got from Kien a long time ago has NEVER branched. It's determined to put all it's eggs into one stick of a basket and touch that front glass. Like wtf?
