I really like it how the acropora at the bottom right turned into that awesome looking orange montipora. What did you feed it?

yeah. like you guys don't move things around. grrrr. hehehe.
actually that's not a green slimer. it's a yellow millie supposedly, but it's turned greenish and doesn't look much like a millie.

seriously. buying an ro/di unit and doing water changes every week or two does wonders.

Your yellow millie/green slimmer could be a acropora prostrata. Here is a pic of what I bought labeled as a yellow millie.
You should be able to see a difference in the size of the coralite lips. Still its a nice coral with great looking yellow base and growth tips.

Almost looks like a slimer to me as well. Nice growth and colors.

I believe it to be a Micropthalma. The speed and thin growth along with stag structure would indicate this. I had one that looked alot like it in color and grew at an unbelievable rate! Tank looks great.

The left small green one? It almost looks too thick to be a microthalma. The right larger one looks like one. It could just be the distance in the picture.

I am refering to the lighter green/teal colored large colony.

thanks guys.
the stag has a lot heavier branches in my tank than the original colony. i have a dart on a closed loop (with 5 returns, one being a 1" sea swirl) and an eheim 1260 return. so lots of flow for a 90 (actully it comes out to about 85.)

Yea, I'll agree with you on the bigger one. I thought you were referring to the left smaller frag.
