    Acropora Hyacinthus. The coloration of the blue/purple encrusing line is really pretty in person. This was a wild colony and it has taken me 4 months to start to see a growing, happy coral.

    This is the green millepora feeding. You get a good idea of what the mesentrial filiments look like.

    Just polyps and tips, but pretty.

    Hey thanks. :)

    I was able to get a friend to give me some. I was lucky.

    I know you can get it on line in Canada and Australia. There are new medications being tested by some individuals that show a lot of promise and do not require a script. Vets do not like to give out interceptor because it can kill a dog with active heart worm disease, this is the reason they shy away from despensing it.

    Very cool.

    This is way off topic but you seem very intelligent and at the same time you know what is aesthetically pleasing. I'm very curious to know what you look like. haha

    I know a lot of worthless facts and my interest in biology started at young age.
