Operation clown goby rescue!!

Couple quick shots before I run out the door, got a EPA/emissions seminar tonight so it'll be a long boring evening

Fruit loops



UCs, these have literally been open the entire time, from out the box to in the tank

Did anyone else see four frags In the bucket earlier? I think someone is holding out on us.

Those are awesome, BigRed!

Ok sorry for the being late on the photos, one of the newbies just wouldn't open all the way up. Was bored last night so I snapped a few pics .

First up, the ones that won't cooperate, still not 100% open but better than nothing. The pic also doesn't do them justice but best I could do ATM, the utters look great in the background though



Other freebies, I really like the look of this pic



UCs



This is kind of a 2 part pic, notice the hungry acan head behind the fruit loops, and the hermit on the prowl. And of course the fruit loops



And part 2, acans crack me up. Guess someone bumped into the wrong coral :p. I didn't see it actually happen, I was getting pics of the shrimp/goby but I look down and see this



The little guy was freaking out trying to get loose, I thought it was hilarious. Guess acans really will eat ANYTHING

And now just some random shots, mostly of the left island. Warning GHA is present in the following pics so if that offends you I'm sorry :p. Finally starting to get it under control, it was a mini forest all around the monti, which is putting down base like a champ despite this , it's starting to encrust onto the rock about 75-80% of the way around.

First the FIS (full island shot)



Yuma and Mohawks,



Mohawks, the coloration is dead on on the last 2 pics, but I wanted to try and show the detail of them. IRL these are awesome



And one of the construction crew :p

Your photos do not disappoint! Love the one with the blasto, zoas, rics and a hint of acan. Really looks like every inch is layered in colorful coral.

Gorgeous pictures. You always have such beautiful corals. Once again - love the Rastas. How do you find them to take care of? I'm wanting some but not sure if they should be the first I order lol.
