I am going to spend most of the morning tomorrow getting some updated pictures in my gallery. Here is my CBS that was posing tonight.

Looks like Anthias.

Great shot of the local polyps, I'd like to get one or two of those myself.

I think the stalks are too small to be Anthias. The entire piece is very small, smaller than they look. I had a 7x macro zoom attached to the camera with its normal zoom to get that picture. I would say the base of the frag is one inch by one inch. They grow on a sheet and i forgot what Brandon called them.

They do look like Anthelia. It also looks like it belongs to the Clavularia genus and the polyps look exactly like Tubipora musica. It may also be type of encrusting Xenia but I can't find any pictures of the encrusting type. What kind of base does it have?

The base looks nothing like my Anthelia base, looks like a sheet like my star polyps.

I think it is baby anthelias..That stuff spreads like weeds. Great Shots.. I have got to get me a camera for macro shots. Maybe when I finish up more on this other jag project I'll shop for one.
