Marv,

How about some pics of those ones hiding at the back of your tank? :D

they should be visible up front in a week again after the final re-arrangement... :)

Has someone asked or have you answered your photo taking technique?

yes.. :)

I think I had posted something about it on the Photography section a while back..


Thanks everyone else for the much appreciated kudos... I just try to collect what I really like and enjoy growing them... and sharing them with you all... :)

I agree Rev. I think he should just send the whole thing to me so I can practice up on my photography skills. That way I can truely compare my photos to his.;)

 

[MarvinsReef]

Thanks guys... I hope they recover well from all the stress they've had since they got collected.. I plan on growing them for atleast 4-6 months and see what they look like... :)

Thanks Al...

I got most of them from trades from guys here... some I purchased from sponsors here or LFS or fellow hobbyists in the area... :)

yeah, the Wines have been really good to me... the only thing is I can't find a rock to keep them growing nicely in that's why I seem to always keep re-growing them.. at one point, the most I had in one rock was about 40 polyps... :)

 

[MarvinsReef]

Nukes showing off their explosive growth! look at all the new babies... there's close to 20 new babies in there.. :D

and a current top down... color is getting better and better... I fragged a few so the babies can get more light...

yeah, I've been very fortunate with them.. that's one of the mother colonies... I plan on having atleast 3 colonies that size (~40-50 polyps) so I can alternate on fragging them to lessen the stress... they are very finicky after fragging... they need atleast 2 weeks of recuperating before shipping them... when they have babies, they have between 2-4 polyps at a time... ;)
