Plate came in Friday on time. FedEx didn't drop the ball this time. Paranoia runs deep when placing orders this time of year. Thank you for the welcome! I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what thread I was posting on. Or whose thread I was posting on. I lived here on R2R for a few years, and never really liked posting questions on someone else's thread that wasn't one I created. If someone needed help, then I would chime in here and there. Always thought it was kinda rude asking questions on another persons thread. So my apologies! Here is a pic of the plate! I have kept a lot of different coral over the last 20 years, but this is my first plate.

I got my yellow plate from corals.com also. Yours is a stunner! Im loving the neon tips. I bet they really pop under blue lights. You're welcome here any time. We'd love to see some pics of the plate in your tank if you feel like sharing them.

Welcome @JCTReefer!

Whew, all caught up. Just what i was expecting. Good pics of coral and food sprinled with some excellent tunes.

All the songs, posted for the parties, about dancing reminded me of this one. Not quite a festive but apropos when it's 4:00, in the morning, and my dance partner would not want to dance if I woke her up to dance.
