More pics from me as everything was looking especially happy after the water change.

The first pic is actually polyps that I didn't give much hope to. It was actually a piece of rock that had broken off a chunk of daisy polyps and I just wedged it in between some other zoos and forgot about it. A few months later and these larger polyps poked out. That's the beauty of this hobby .. almost like a grab bag as sometimes you never know what you're going to get.

I also included a pic of one of my favorite mushrooms I got from Blane. It has an undertone of a rich purple color and the colorful zoos around it really seem to frame it well.

Another pic here is one of my 'grapes' that I got from Logical.

Finally, the last pic includes some oranges that I spotted today. Pictures do not do these guys justice. The orange centers are a bright, nearly glowing color. They look to be multiplying quickly too (yay!).

I have a bunch coming from Anthony and Bryan is putting together a custom order for me too. Frankly, I am out of room. Thank God I have that 150 downstairs!

Hope you all have a great holiday season!

NICE!!! NICE!!! Looks Great. What kind of camera are you using. The quality of the pics are great! I love to see pictures like that. I wish I could get that quality out of my Sony DSC.

As always, very nice, Jeff.

I know I've told you this before, but I can't wait to see what that 150 looks like when it's all said and done.

Thanks guys! I am using a now ancient Canon S10. It does the job but I plan on getting a Canon Digital SLR after Christmas then I can really take some cool close ups :).

I should be ready to unveil the entire 20 again in about a month. I still have some things to get out of the tank and some things to put in the tank. Basically it's turned into primarily a zoo tank, although I still have my frogspawn, a scolymia, blasto (wellsi and merleti), a fox, daisies, some mushrooms (including rics), a sun coral, a plate coral, a bubble coral, and some gorgonia.

Trying to position my 150. As a sidenote, I will be getting rid of my 5 and 1/2 nanos which will have LR, LS and a few corals in them. It will be a plug and play affair and I will be letting them go cheap too. I currently have two of those.

Probably around the April timeframe. I'll post here when I do.

No shrimp in them, though? Bummer!
