Pink Zoanthids

I have been taking close-up pictures of the corals... I guess that I am adding a new hobby to the list! I get really interesting shots every once in a while. If you like any of these, drop me a line. They make nice wallpapers for the PC. People at the office usually ask what is it and then have a hard time believing that it is from my tank. Hope you enjoy!

Bubble Coral

Another type of coral that I wanted to have for a long time! This was a nice looking piece from the LFS. At home, it doubled in size almost immediately. It has been doing great since the introduction on 2/4/07. The sweeping tentacles pack a punch, so I am keeping an eye on the surroundings.

Red Mushrooms

Awesome colors! I have been trying to get these guys for a while. Red mushrooms are a bit pricier than all the other mushrooms. Also, at the store they usually sell you one or two… otherwise it is a pricy piece. This was a piece of rock with several of them. Someone trade it in at the store and that was my best opportunity. They were added on 2/4/07. I can’t wait for them to cover the entire rock.
