Corals;
Two different types of Pulsing Xenia

Green star polyps
And a few mystery lps

I love the dimensions of your tank. I had a 33 long, same footprint, too shallow. I had a 55 gallon, same footprint, too tall. 40 long, just the right height.:)

Very nice. Following along.

What kind of snail is that? Very pretty shell.

How long has that putty been thee holding your corals? I'm interested in using it over Cg (which I've not been successful using). I hear that the putty gets algae fairly quickly. So I am wondering how long you've had that in there.

Thanks! The snail is a tiger nassarius snail. Very cool shell indeed! I like him because of the red flesh he's got. It goes from dark red to a lighter red and looks amazing in person. As for the putty it should take a few weeks to a month for it to totally blend into the rocks. The putty that you see was put in about two days ago lol. I was thinking of getting cg but i haven't seen many others using it.
