thanks bro.. :)

just for you...

some nice frags I received a few weeks ago... I actually received doubles of these guys so I'm letting go of a frag or two in the next week or two..

Chong Bongs -- I didn't capture the true beauty but I guess this will do...

OPE's -- had to frag a few polyps of a mini colony I received coz some started melting away.. I was able to save these guys... I have two other frags for my growing colonies.. :)

another awesome Rainbow morph.. note the goldish/white speckles.. really sweet looking..

Thanks Nick... True GPE's have always been a hard find for me... it took me more than two years to find a frag.... it took me more time to find a frag than any other morph... I'm happy to have a nice colony going.... :)

yeah, still small polyps though... I do have another frag at a friend's house though... :)

Hi Jon.. it's the only SPS I'm able to keep without a skimmer... it's the true SuperMan variety... it that was given by a friend that has a killer SPS tank (waynesreef)... I've had this piece for almost two years now.. :)

here's what it looked like in May 2007...

Dec 2006 -- a few weeks after I got it...

now some FTS... I'm quite proud of these shots... turned out that I was totally using the wrong setting with my FTS... I was wondering why it always turned out really blue and blurry... I tried a new feature for my wife's hand held and used normal setting instead of macro and with that combination came up with these... not too shabby for a hand held and not using a tripod.. :D

FTS 1 & FTS 2 -- fishes are posing.. and FTS 3 -- no fish is blocking the aquascaping...

some TopDown shots taken w/ wifey's HandHeld camera and $5 salad bowl as top down box... :)

SuperMan & Mandarin Orange zoas!!! like whoa!?!
