Not an Alien but I picked up a female Dragonscale Halfmoon.
 
It's hard not to. I feel like I wasn't specifically targeted.
 
It stinks somewhat because it's something I could have used but I'm happy for the winners for sure!
 
It's crazy how black the Reverse Prism Favia gets when I spot feed it.
 
So far her and Mel are getting along. They don't hang out but they swim past each other occasionally and don't flare or even give a second glance.
 
PO4 - 0.03... These corals are hungry. Added another 0.1 ppm
NO3 - 55.0
Hanna Alk - 8.0 (Salifert agrees - gonna bring that up some - prefer 8.3-8.4)
Cal - 480 (kinda on the high side)
Magnesium - 1310 (might bring it up, why not?)

How's the coral snow working out for you?

I'm almost certain that's what drove my calcium up and alk down but my water is definitely clear! Just something to be aware of if you use it. I read a Reef Builder's article that basically warned about the lowering of alk using it.
 
It lowers phosphates and can lower alkalinity. My phosphates are down and my alkalinity are down. :D
 
Little Zoa garden:
I have Radioactive Dragon Eye, possibly Orange Dragon Eye, Eagle Eye, Pandora's, Magicians, Mohawks, and I believe Spiders.

Morning shot. Lights coming on. I think I'm going to try to make some sorta sleeves for the fuge stand.
