Hey those are some pretty impressive macro shoots.

I sincerely love the first one of the clown in the anemone and the second of the cleaner hanging up side down.

 

Thanks I am growing really attached to the clown and nem. Had them for over a year now. They were in the same tank for 3 month before they found each other. Since then both really blossomed, and grew in size. When that nem opens up, it's easily 12 inches in diameter. And that clown is now about 4 inches long and rather portly. When I got him he was about 1 inch and nem was the size of a silver dollar. It looked really stressed and pure white at the time.

 

Sebaes' can make amazing recoveries in the right tank, good job.

Do you just have the one clown?

 

Yes, just one. From what i read its too risky to try to add 2nd one now. Wish I knew more about the hobby back when I got him.

 

nice pics, I love the galaxea

 

I'd be happy to take some off your hands

 

Oh yea and very nice tank too, love the macro shots.

 

Some new adds today. Picked up some SPS frags the The Reef Farm today:
