Picture Thread of the Week - Softies!

For this week, let's see pictures of those soft corals in your tank.

Here's one I grew from a tiny blob that I brought home from a MACNA coral propagation workshop:



That is my happy Toadstool Leather.

Picture taken with a Fuji S602Z, in macro mode, Aperature Priority.

How 'bout a fuzzy shroom, and a Xenia that decided to let me know what it thought of me taking its picture?

Was this a bad topic? Do none of you keep soft corals in your tanks? Come on... Remember to take those and post them here.

The "before" shot was what it looked like from the LFS and the "after" is what it looked like after a couple months in my tank .

I like the leathers Marc. I've got a toadstool that looks very similar, so I just took a moonlight pic of it for a different perspective. I just took a couple frags off it last week, but I don't think it really even noticed the loss.

I used to have this leather untill I got hooked on sps. My lawnmower blenny still won't speak to me.



If mushrooms count, I have tons of photos of my favorite corals..
