Tank was looking good last night so I snapped a few close-ups. Feel free to comment and post. Enjoy!

Steelers. I hope they can figure out how to win in the playoffs again! Oh well, always next year.
Funny story. When I was in the Air Force, I was stationed at Aviano Air Base, Italy in 2006. I didn't watch football then, but one morning, when I was driving onto the base, the gate guard jokingly said he'd only let me on if I knew who won the super bowl the night before. Being an American, and not being able to escape the news, I guessed correctly. Steelers. These days, I watch, but I'm in DC, so it's Redsk---no, "Washington Football Team" :p Or any team that isn't the Patriots.

I live in the area, and while I “bleed black & gold” I really like sports in general. Love to go to Nat’s games in the summer - fun vibe down at The Yards

That first pic was sold to me from ASD as a Miami Hurricane. I bought it with two eyes about a year ago. Probably 2 inches in diameter now
Sorry the second one is what I was talking about. My bad. I know it as an alien eye not mummy eye, lol.
Here is mine.

Ah yeah! That's what I miss the most during this pandemic--Nats games. Those are always a blast. I watch religiously through MLB app using a DNS spoofer, but it's not the same as being there. :(

Ah ok! Actually it’s just a generic Hollywood Stunner super close-up. It got to the size of a small dinner plate before I bumped it with a scraper and shattered it. It’s still pretty big, but getting stung like crazy by an anemone. I’ll get in there one of these days and move stuff around again, but I’m not too worried because this has happened before and it always bounces back. It’s the stony coral equivalent to Xenia

Yea the holloywood stunner I am used to looks different.
The alien eye does not grow quite as fast as the stunner from my experience.
The two are actually different species but look similar.
Either way nice corals.
