Unphased seem the Alveopora to be.
Other coral can't even take it for a minute. This Alveo has been taking it for the day and it is not close to be bother for now.

I will not leave it this way.

It has been a long while since I posted some overviews.

A few nems entered the stage as we know... so some LPS and SPS has gone out. I did lose 1 piece due to a anemone that was trying to host it.... And the rest has found places at friends.

These are some sort of webcam pics. My DSLR can't seem to get it all in focus... so these 2 are the best I got.

So, the current photo contest on this forum has "Double Trouble" as a theme. I am considering entering this photo, but... I do have 2 of those urchins. Maybe a shot with those 2 is the better option.

Not sure yet.

A more flat look in these photos.. Just to be sure I don't mess up colours. I'll look at them on different devices. I recently noticed things look pretty different on devices I don't use...

Ahh man... I have been thinking to post it... or not. I would rather wait because you never know how it ends up.
But on the other hand, if it goes south.. I will post a detailed log about it so we all can learn.

I want to introduce you to my new Blue nem....
I already tried one last month but it shipped bad and was already pretty much gone when I got it. So last Monday I walked towards this beauty. After some hard thinking an milliseconds of doubt... I could not resist.

Now we have to wait. Months....
For now it is looking good. It did not deflate since I got it and has been digging the sand a bit. It seems like a it is a slow moving giant and not a nimble fast deer.

I can't even sleep. When at work I am totally lost in some sort of panic because I just want to go home and stare at it. This can NOT go wrong. I even sourced a few Antibiotics which I am no user of with my own nems.

@OrionN I am seriously hoping you give me feedback if you see something on any of the pics I will post in the future which makes you worry. Please do not hesitate or feel bad about anything and just write it. I will take it as info. Thanks.
