I have started to take regular pictures of some of the faster growing SPS to document the growth rate and see if I get any additional growth when I remove the leathers. Here is the first few that didn't look like a second grader took them (maybe a third grader).

I would say that the orange cap is my fastest growing coral. I got it from Ken (Nepthea) last November. It was about the size of a half dollar. It didn't take any time to encrust and start growing outward, even under VHO's.

Here are a few that I got from Mike (thanks Mike). The blues don't show up too well.

They are like little snail shells. I have no idea what they are, but they get everywhere. Any ideas?

It is a polychaete in the family spirorbidae. Its a lot like a feather duster and is supposed to mean your tank is healthy. I get them on my tank that I don't heavily skim.

What's wrong Amy?

Liz and Shawn, what do you have to trade? I could make some small frags of a few things, but mostly what I have are frags.
