Great shots.

Nice camera work, and great corals!

Is that second blue tipped white bodied coral different from the first? It looks a lot like an "Ice Blue Echinata".

Keep it up!

Thanks for the kind remarks.

They are completely different. I think the one you are referring to is in picture #8 which I think is an A.lokani. The other (2nd picture) I believe is an A.aculeus unless you are talking about the A.tenuis in the 5th picture. Anyway, not sure if I really answered your question but thanks for looking.

Thanks again guys. Here's a green polyp piece that is finally starting to shine.


I posted a couple of these in the Monti thread so sorry for any repeats but here are a few anyway.
Two different versions of what I think is M.capitata and a M.danae.

Thanks Wendy.

It's actually just a Sony Cyber-shot 8.1mp pocket camera with a macro setting. I took most of these photos top down through an acrylic box to break the water surface.

Hey Greg, i must come by and get some acro frags from you, they look amazing.

Do you have any good stag horn or tricolor frags?

Unbelievable Greg! THis is my favorite,



THe blue noses and light color skin are awesome!

I had and was very successful in growing a coral that looked exactly like this. Do you know it's linage?

I am sure we can work something out. Shoot me a pm to make arrangements.

Thanks Joe, I used to think it was a A.granulosa but now I am leening toward A.lokani. Now if I could only get rid of all that darn xenia growing wild.

I got a frag of it from a local reefer who told me it was an LE when he got it but I don't know from who or where. I think it is an A.lovelli but not positive.


Thanks again for all the kind comments.
