    I just purchased 3 goodies for my tank. I currently have them in my frag tank and they will be in there until my Main tank is ready. Lighting isn't that good. Still waiting for my lights to come in.

    Th one in the back is my GSP. I love GSP's!

    These have a pale green color to them and are small....ID please!

    I found one of the lil' green polyps that fell of the rock overnight and I went ahead and glued it to a rock and it looks to be doing great

    At first I asked for an ID on these bad boys.......but now they are doing something weird I've never seen before. All the polyps have been closed for the past 2 days while the other corals are doing fine. This morning while I was replacing the filter on this tank, I noticed that while they are closed, some of them are letting go a stream of some whittish looking fluid. What is it?:confused:

    These are the ones I'm talking about:
