It looks like a rock anemone attached to the clam shell. Great pics! I will post some pics of my new setup this week.

good show, does this tank eat up all of your free time for maintenance?

nope.. dont really touch it. I add RO/DI water w/ calk and feed mabey twice a week and clean the skimmer about once ever couple weeks. I dont take any readings, havnt done a water change in months(altho I will do one soon).

I'm getting coraline alage like crazy, everything is growing. Why change anything..

Mac!!! you got all this from "out there"?....You MUST tell me when you're going out again. I never thought that SPS's would be so close inland.

magrath... first off, you need a new camera. lol I have a Canon Rebel XT with a nice Sigma MACRO lens. And its taken me a couple of years to be able to get the pics I get. And right now I'd consider myself a above average amature photographer.

I'll try and get some more pics up in next few days.
