the new frostbite clown (about 1" long)

the soon to be female clown (about 3" long)

The clowns are already hanging out together at times, and there has been zero aggression from the resident clown.

GSP

Zoas

nepthea

favia, this thing has been growing n growing, slowly of course. puts out feeders like crazy when the lights are off

some sort of encrusting SPS that starts with a p

Cheaper favia (or so I was told, hoping it recovers and I can trade it for something cool)

Dang I’m really liking those frostbite clowns! I need to get a pair like that in the new tank!

 

[count krunk]

Yeah the frost bite is really cool! It's from snowflake and something else. The other clown is a snowflake.

Where did you get him at?? We have one exactly like it from nemo's.

 

[count krunk]

We got him from Nemo's last Sunday. We decided it was a good time to introduce a new clown after a small rescape and it had been a couple of weeks since the female jumped.

psammocora, I have maybe 5 species, they are cool.

update time!

Looking at the previous pics reminded I have a nice frag of green zoas! I knocked them behind the rock in my hasty maintenance last week, I was rushing as I was leaving for my brothers wedding the next day!

Luckily, it landed zoa side up (thankfully!) and I moved it up onto a rock moments ago. No pic of it this week as it is closed and angry after it's "rescue"!

phone pics incoming

FTS

Clowns and Frogspawn

Nepetha looking real good, the extension I am getting is amazing

electric green GSP from @neilp2006. @James_O the start of my GSP backwall

don't remember frag from @neilp2006 (fingernail size)

just flipped up this encrusting monti, it was upside for an hour or so so it's angry, also from @neilp2006

4 week difference in my GSP frag. Next session will see this and the green zoa removed from their plugs and glued down. GSP to the other side of the back glass. Zoa to a rock.

Looks like a couple of cup coral polyps. Common on gulf live rock collected farther south. Other option would be ball anemone. Hard to say for sure in the pic.

That GPS looks great! My LFS had a BPS and a GPS frag - to bad I didn't have enough $$$ to get both.

I got that rock that's really covered from a guy who said it's was from his uncle's 10 year old sps tank his uncle gave to him. Uncle left the hobby.

The pieces with multiple colors of coralline are TBS. I put a lot of shells in my sump, if they get covered you are welcome to them! I think there is a small piece of rock in the back I could fish out if you want to move it through you qt process.

Appreciate that, but I have some in my frag tank I’m going to harvest and grind and spread it into the Display

cheers though!

Blue star polyps

Yes, similar to GPS.

Why aren’t they called GSP and BSP? That would make sense. O>O

 

[count krunk]

They are called gsp and bsp haha.

The driving factor behind me using Reef Crystals! I have it set up on auto ship every 3 months for this price. This is the 5g bucket.
