New here. Got some macro shots to tease before tank thread.

CHRIS!!! WELCOME!!!
NICE corals!
Do you find that your wild-collected specimens encrust a lot before they gain verticle growth? I ask because this is my experience.
My experience is they go both directions equally. I have one colony that just got thicker and then 8 weeks later started to encrust. This colony browned out a few weeks after adding it due to a Alk swing.
I got onto it quick though and has gained 80% of it's green colour back after only 17 days.
 
Welcome to the family. I’m slow on the uptake, where is oz?

Do I need red slippers to get there? ;Woot

For sure. Yeah, slippers and an airfare to Australia. It's almost spring so pack light!
 
Welcome home, you will love it here!

We are going to need some of those tank pics! :)
