Man, those other two rainbow brains would look really good next to mine!

Mindy brings up a very good point. We can have a very lengthy discussion (no, not here) about what a coral is exactly. The long and short of it is, a coral is a very general term that describes pretty much anything in the class anthozoans. This includes anemones.

Seriously though, let's not have that discussion here. We want pictures ! Feel free to discuss what a "coral" is/means in (coral) discussion thread. For the purposes of looking at pretty pictures, the general definition is good enough

That is all, carry on.

Here's a Bonsai that turned out nice. It might look like I post-processed my photos like crazy. But nope, the Kessils put out so much blue and white light, I only have to apply automatic white balance to all of my photos. But I do have to dial down the camera's exposure. Otherwise, the raw photo is way too bright.

To see the raw image straight from my camera, here's the link: https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...3e&oe=5548507E
