4’x2’x2’ build… The Dragons’ Forest

[i cant think]

Nice it’s funny cuz my first pair in 2017 were also a green and a purpleish pink. Wish I had pic of them both.

I wish I got more photos of my 3’ tank in its full glory, maybe then it wouldn’t be quite so hard to ID certain coral but oh well. Guess I just have to look at them and wait for similar coral to appear in the LFS.

I try to hunt down the experts here, white and blue pictures during polyp extension. Hit or miss but it beats the “new guys” working at my lfs.

I’m looking forward to seeing your Kenya settle in. I’m curious if it’s a Kenya or possibly something else

So am I, I’m pretty sure it’s a kenya however the only coral I know that looks like it is a Kenya haha

Stunning!

I like that clown

Thankyou! It’s a Black Photon… The bucket is her destiny if I have to move a certain rock near her Yuma’s. I’ve been bitten about three or four times by her.
Been wondering whether I could try pair her again but after 2 years of no mate and with her being partly Percula I’m wondering whether she’ll accept a mate.

Well, I tried to get a photo of the Kenya “Wall” but someone else decided it was their turn to be photographed… Usually it’s a nightmare to get a photo of him!

And some more photos of the coral through the branches!

And here’s some different coral in the tank! Will need to count the polyps on that Duncan soon as it’s getting big, same with the yumas.

As all 3 are out I figured I’d update on them!
For some reason, I want more shrimp but territory may be an issue unfortunately. So hey, I figured why not go for a fire shrimp in my Nano eventually

Look at the reds on the two L. amboinensis though! They’re so vibrant and I’m glad they don’t hide in their cave all day as much anymore.

As I’m on a kick for reds today, I figured I’d add photos of everything red in the tank (Which isn’t much at all).

The C. melanomarginatus isn’t here as it refuses to get a photo taken

Well the Kenya was being a nightmare as when the lifted side was extended it kept going into the sand bed and I gave up. Finally got a clean knife arrive today so figured I’d frag it into 2 and have them on separate rocks. I’ll be away from the tank for a while but will get whoever cares for it to get photos tomorrow if they’re extended.

@Mibu take a look at this Kenya, wide thick base like the one you have but the branches are snub nose and rose buddy

I’m sure everyone’s intrigued by the updates on the Kenya.
Now I’m home I can show you!
It’s doubled in size and still stunning

I have the same issue with my kenya, some days it never goes upright, some days its the highest point in my tank.

I got bumped off your thread. Looks like you got some really nice new additions!

nice new pfp!

Yeah, figured I should swap it to my iridis as I got a nice photo and the chlupatyi was a rather old fish that I’m hoping to replace in the future!

Thankyou, they’re not too rare of an addition but hey it adds colour

I love soft corals. I have a large colt that my gladiator clowns host. I need to get a kenya.

I need to find a colt, hopefully I find another nice leather some time soon.

I went on a bit of a softie shopping spree today. Ended up finding a green kenya, purple lemnalia and decided to try some gorgonians (red & yellow). Also got a free nub of a leather, I'm interested to see what it is.

Once they settle, I would love pics!
I also need to try my hand at some gorgs as my dream hitchhiker seems to prefer coming in on gorgs (Sea Whip Gobies - Bryaninops species).
