Lightbulb Show me your Staghorns! (Formosa, Yongei etc.)
Maybe you know, most of the SPS in my tank are "Staghorns". I'm always looking for new ones, different colours etc.

This month I'll take a trip to Germany (just 5 hours drive for me), therefore I would like to know what kind of colours are existing, so I can search for them

So please show that Stags!

Leonardo

I agree, it is an impressive tank......I like that you stuck with the stags primarily........In addition, if your looking for suggestions, maybe you should list what you have already.

I have a small frag of the Ponape Torch,http://www.reeffarmers.com/,
and can't wait to get it to grow out after seeing Ming's this weekend at Atlantis Aquarium!!!http://www.atlantisaquarium.net/frags1.html, he has gotten some great coloration out the piece.



I suppose thats as good as any to start out with, but question availabilty in corner of the world.

I have some small stags too that I can post later.

But one of my favorite "stag" tanks is SimonH's. This one is unreal.

Stag Pic
Here is a top down of my Bali Green Slimer, still quite young. I can't believe I'm posting this after the pic of SimonH's tank. That is just Incredible.[IMG][/IMG]

Kip, that looks great!!!!!

SimonH's growth and cool tank is impressive, one of my favorites, but I think it would look 10x better if those stags were colored.

Leonardo,
A. Hoeksami, is a stunning stag. The midnight blue this stag displays is totally unique to this coral.

I think it would look great in your formosa forest, a good contrast towards some of your other stags.

Keep an eye out for one when you are in Germany, if you don't have one already.

Here's mine.

Very nice formosa's!

BRISK495, thanks for that picture. That tank of simonH is very nice indeed.

Baros, thanks for the recommendation, I will search for that one when I'm in Germany.

Pitstop, I like your tank very much, but you already knew that

I'll try to make a new thread about my tank later this day.

Keep on posting!

Leonardo
