    Hey guys, I just got some new coral additions to fill a little of the void in my tank. They're very tiny frags, but I'm really digging all of them and I hope they'll do fine.

    I uploaded the ebay pictures (copywright reefpets.com) in my album gallery I believe.
    Please stop by and take a look, and I would appreciate some more tips (2in10 was giving me tips on this as well) on placement, flow and feeding, since I'm not very experienced with any of these species.

    Thank you in advance for your help and advice.

    Thank you!! I'm very excited , about them, they're very pretty!!

    I think the placement will be temporary for the moment, since I haven't gotten my rockwork quite fnished after I had to tear it apart to get the dead angel.

    I placed the SPS at the top with lots of light, and the shrooms and pally at the bottom as 2in10 suggested.

    Can't wait to finish the rock... it's my next big task since I'm done with the sump, hung the light and added the ATO... Rockwork... here I come! :) :D :yelrotflm

    Sorry... too excited! :)

    She told me to go pick it up at campus or to buy my own camera! How dare she? I won't let her look at the tank anymore!
    I even said: But honey, what's more important, leaves or corals!?
    And she replied: It's more important that I finish my dissertation so I can graduate and buy more corals later!

    That's only one of the reasons I married her :) :)

    We have two cameras, but my battery always seems to be dead or missing. However, she takes all the photos of the tank because I am photographically challenge. Taking the photos and being in the photo.

    LOL, I can completely relate to that! She's the one that knows about exposure and all the camera functions... I only know "Auto" mode and "Macro".... just because she showed me "Macro" once I was *****ing about my inability to take good pictures of small things! :)
