Pics I took today

Post by snoopdog »

I am trying to get pics of stuff as I add them and document any growth. So here are some pics of stuff I recently got from Aquaworks and Reeferpuffer donated a ton. First here is the Monti I got for a door prize from Xster at Liz's reef party.

The tank has done well for just under a month and a half. It should look really good by summer.

Those centers are a hair bit more brown than in the picture. I adjusted the white balance of the camera before the shot but the actinics still made them look a little purple. The color of the button is a hair bit purple but not quite the same. I do have a few if you want to trade something in the Zoanthid family for a swap.

Reefers have no cure for hair algea that is known. From what I understand just check everything you can for proper operation and pull by hand. I ditched my old rock to rid myself of it.
