Are they bad?

 

[apet66]

Nope, they both are good cuc members. Thankfully!

 

[kwandrsn]

Ok was just, wondering cause you removed them

 

[apet66]

When in doubt get em out! Put them in my feeding glass with some tank water. They're back in the reef now that I know they're safe.

 

[kwandrsn]

Oh ok I gotcha

Attended my first frag swap yesterday. It was awesome!!! So many vendors, so many corals. I went home with 7 different corals. Not sure of the name of all of them but all are very cool!
1 neon green nepthea
1 neon yellow ( sold as cyphastrea) not what it is though.
1 yellow sps. Not sure.
3 different zoah frags, one of which is blow pops.

 

[kwandrsn]

Awesome picks Tony. The yellow is nepathea as well. There is a couple different shades of colors

 

[apet66]

Thanks Bro,
The yellow one doesn't have any polyps on it anywhere. Looks like a leather of some type.

 

[kwandrsn]

It looks like my nepathea when I first got it just yellow. Give it time and see if you see polyps.
Nepathea is a type of leather btw

Update: I've been battling some Cyano and GHA, I believe my t-5 bulbs crossed over to the red spectrum. Have 6 new giesmann bulbs running now and running some algaefix. It's starting to die off so I'll keep up with the cleaning and water changes. Added a Court jester goby and I believe a purple stylophora.

Thank you! In the full tank shot it would be a pulsating xenia.

I was thinking flowerpot cause I couldn't make it out
I have no luck with xenia it always melts on me I love that stuff wish it would grow for me

 

[apet66]

I had one when I first started this tank 7 1/2 months ago and it melted after a month. I've had this one about 2 months and it is 10x the size it was when I got it.
