Megabite's 180 Reef - Round 2

Here's a similar one from WWC called a WWC Blue Polyp Montipora.

This one appears to be a Montipora crassituberculata where the one he posted appears more Montipora cebuensis or capricornis (more likely cebuensis).

Send the pic to @WWC to see what they say

I did, I emailed them and am waiting to hear back.

For Montipora Cebuensis, do those grow in plates like Capricornis or will it just spread over the rocks? I am deciding where I want to try and place it once it gets a little larger.

Here's a couple of pictures from this morning of our hero (Corris the yellow wrasse) from yesterday's deaf defying leap.

I am so jealous of your picture taking ability for fish, they keep moving around too much for me!

USE PROTECTION WHEN.......

Your tank is unattended. Was doing a little maintenance today with the my top off and.......

Look at the yellow wrasse on the right side of the tank.

Beautiful tank OG !

Looks like it grows in plates or cups upward.

Yes, “Coris” the yellow wrasse.

Coris the chrysus wrasse?

Fish are really tough to take pictures of. You have to take a bunch of pics just to get a couple good ones. Shutter speed of about 1/125 to limit blur and bring up the iso and f-stop to bring in more light for the higher speeds.

Here’s a couple of my favorite fish pics.

Oh yeah, and bring up the whites because fish colors really wash out with the blues.

I went through the entire day thinking it was Thursday. So, I had that going for me.

And it's now Thursday.
