    I would guess a stag over a tort... however its harder to tell without polyps or until they get larger.
    As far as a common hobby name: I have no clue lol

    The only place in town, called Crystal Clear Aquarium. Talk to Tanner (owner) or Dave (older guy) if you ever go there.

    Oh nice! Did you get anything? Apparently there are fair amount of people in Bozeman who are into reefing.

    Yeah it didn't work out well the second time. I picked up a galaxia coral the first time though that is rocking! Great guys down there I love their display tank!
