    I ended up fragging a few dying heads off just the other day and redipped in coral rx and lugols,now it is far from 100%,but looking better by the day with improved overall tissue appearance and extension.So,I do believe it is on the mend and thanks for asking!

    The name of that coral was bugging me. I had to go back through the thread to find it. I knew it was berry-something, but I'm bad with remembering names. ATL Appleberry Palawanesis. I think my brain is full.

    Didn't want to jinx myself by posting pics before the new fish was acclimated, but I picked up an Earmuff Wrasse a week ago. Getting harassed a little by the Yellow Coris, but nothing serious.

    Some nighttime polyp extension shots with the blue LED flashlight:

    I think the Bowerbanki may be getting baby heads. They seem to grow from the actual head, and not the rim like Lords.

    New Blasto that was just moved to the DT.

    This little chalice has a lot of color under the blues. With full light, it's all red.

    Lots of babies popping out on all of the Acans (since there are no Amphipods to eat them, grrr).

    Crazy Acan I got last September at the swap as a single head.

    Thanks much!

    Nope, not even a flash. LED flashlight for nighttime shots. Todd saw how I take pictures, just point and shoot. Nothing fancy here.

    Thanks again, Todd!

    Nice, another member of the Amphipod Haters Club ;D. We may be able to get Cheryl on board, too. :p

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Hi, I am Cheryl, and I do not like Amphipods.

    Wow Jerry you sure have some fantastic coloration to those corals, camera skills are not too bad either.

    Love the night poly extension shots of all of them.
