Some Lps pics of my tank. Micros and more. Dial-up beware lots of pics.

Here are some pics of some of the lps I have in my tank. I have recently started getting interested in some micromussas and decided to take some pics to show them off finally.
Here is are two of three corals I bought while at MACNA '06. I bought it thinking it was a micro but after seeing how big the polyps have became I am not sure if it is a acan or micromussa. What do you guys think? You can also see a watermelon chalice I bought from the same vendor in the background.

Here is the third coral I got from vendor at MACNA '06 and I am thinking it is the alien eye chalice.

These two pics are of one I got from a LFS. It is a ice blue with a bright center. It also has a few polyps with a little red with around the very edges.


Here is another one I got from the same LFS. I wonder if it is the same kind of the blueish colony above cause it has a red outer ring with bright bluish centers and a blue dusting.

Also another one I got from same LFS. It is more of a green in person with a lighter green dusting. Man I am not very good at taking pics.

The one on the right is a new one I just got today from a fellow club member.

Here is a bad photo of a Fraggle Reef micro called Alien Eye I think. I wish I could take a better pic.

Here are two scolymia I got from a group buy with Ultimatefrags.org that our club did. These pics were taken right after putting them in my tank.

Here are two corals I got from a fellow club member breaking down his tank. A pink chalice and a nice acan enchinata.


Also here is a supposed Tyree war coral from FraggleReef.com. Also a group buy purchase with club. It was under low light at his place and is starting to color up nicely in my tank. Also not a good pic.

I got tired of all these frags sitting on the sand and getting covered every once in awhile from my sand sifting goby so I changed my tank up a bit and now have what I call Fraggle Rock. Anyone remember the cartoon from the 80's.

Those are some sweet corals! Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed the pictures. Hmm, er, nope, I wouldn't be remembering Fraggle Nuthin' from the 80's!

Ya, but the cartoon was based on an HBO special. Do you remember that? You know, back when Mtv just meant music television?
