Snapped a few pix today of a few sps.

Here is a cool combo rock I got from Reef Wholesale a while back.

Here's a couple of pieces growing nicely from rescue/insurance frags

I am digging the subtle pink hues in this Granulosa

One of my favorite stags - Acropora Exquisita

Acropora Nobilis - freakishly cool coral

Doug's Granulosa - got this frag from fishytime a few years ago(when he lived in Calgary)
and it basically just subsisted as a brown blob in the frag tank until I decided to move it in
the main display a few months ago just to see if would get it's act together and it is now
sprouting branches and coloring up nicely and looks like it is finally going to explode with growth.

I like how this "war" favia is now pooling at the bottom of the blue streak.

I'll start with some Leopard Wrasse pix -
Mister

Mrs.

Trying to shoot the wrasses but the tangs are camera hogs.

My pigmy wrasse is very shy and rarely comes out of the caves far enough to get a photo -
the mystery wrasse hassles it every chance it gets.

I have a war favia that is doing the same thing and looks very similar. It also has that blue streak. I first thought it had a problem and was going to bleach out on me. But then it just kept growing, along with the blue streak. So I guess that is a natural characteristic of this coral??

Also, what light does yours get?
