Here ya go Esqueleto! Here is a pic that I just snaped of them when I came home today! I was able to get a nice shot of them without the cleaners walking all over them. As you can see in the pic that the 2 cleaner shrimp are in there favorite spot waiting to pounce on them, :lol:

EDIT: The pics is an IPHONE pic and the blue washes the color out. The one on the right has a nice golden color with a light Blue rim around the fleshy part. The one on the right has a nice deep purpleish blue color and has a nice darker blue rim on its flesh part and has nice small bright blue dots on it as well! They seem to be doing great and love the tank!

i miss my clam. it was a 'baby' and i didn't feed it.... I'm guessing thats the reason for its demise.

 

Do I have something I want to give away. Let me think. Only thing I have right now is what you already have. Have some real nice GSP frags. But they are no doubt green. I was gonna trade them in to the LFS today. Two different kinds. You should get some mini maxis for the bottom area. They are so addictive. I want to fill a tank with them and feed them all at the same time. That would be awesome.

 

EDIT. Actually, if you want softies....I have the following:

 

Red Shrooms

Electric Blue Shrooms

Purple Death Palys (these look a little bland under my lights, but maybe under the SOL blue they would look better??)

Watermelon Zoas (I could frag you some)

I have a single Candy Cane coral head. Never mounted it. Looks fine. Kinda light blue.

Anymore issues with your MP40? That's a bummer.. I got 2 that are supposed to show up on my doorstep tomorrow.

No more problems so far. I'm keepin my fingers crossed! It works great when it works, and this one I have now has been good except for a couple days ago.

Since my last bump was not a big one at all I decided to Bump up the blues some more. I left the white alone since white penetrates the water more than blue. This is why I bumped the blues some more. So here are my current settings:

 

White-Blue-Royal Blue

 

7AM: 20-35-35

9AM: 25-40-40

12PM: 30-50-50

2PM: 40-60-60

3PM: 40-60-60

5PM: 30-50-50

6PM: 25-40-40

8PM: 15-25-25

10PM: 0-1-0

2AM: 0-0-0 (lunar on - Lights out from 2AM-7AM)

Nice additions, cant wait to see the red planet!

Thanks! I can't wait to see them all! I am hoping to get 12 or more corals between them, hopefully!

 

I am also getting some more from a guy in White Marsh as well. Probably 3 or 4 pieces from him I think. So within the next week I think I will have atleast 15 new corals with a couple small colonies!

The corals look good, you should open a store!!! I still have them in the sand bed, just have not had time to place them on the rock yet. I am hopeing to do some if not all of the placment when I get home today... As for the sump, I will def have it for sale when I get another bigger sump.

Now that I see how full your tank looks, I cant believe it all came from my tank! Good Luck with placements. lol

Thanks! I cant believe it did all come from your tank! It was packed! Last night was the first time I saw the manderin since I put him in... I thought he died on me...
