Feb 2025 POTM: LPS Colony

[World Citizen]

Duncanopsammia, my favourite coral to photograph.

Even 1 head makes a great shot... But with some isolation and a little extra light on it... these things are the perfect photo candidate.

I would like a frag today!

It most likely won't display the same colors under your lighting ;)

Duncans have always been one of my favorite corals! RIP to the one I had when I first got my tank.

This is my rainbow blasto colony, I got it in August of 2020, one polyp that was all redish orange. If you are interested there is a little more info here: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/rainbow-blasto-story.952157/
pic was taken with my cannon T3i, and a BOA topdown tube, no filter, and custom white balance.

My Hammer garden. I have been collecting different hammers for several years. I love when I have to frag and rearrange them from time to time.

I use kessil a360x and actinic reefbrite strips to light the tank this was shot in.

Photo was taken with a Samsung galaxy s20 plus.

I’m terrible at photos but thought I’d give it a try. I just upgraded my tank and the pectinia is mounted on one of the newer pieces of Marco rock, so sorry about the diatoms!

I caught my duncan at a good time. (please ignore a little bit of the disco on the right haha)

Couple acan heads for ya all. All under low light and lowish flow. Just enough flow for the heads to kinda bounce. Took this with my galaxy s24 unltra
