Jimmy's Coral Picture Thread

So instead of cluttering up the old thread, I'd like a place to drop just general coral pictures for viewing and commenting. Hence... here we go.
Got some new corals... and a picture of "Acan 3" as well as the recovering Brain Coral.

 

Looking good Jimmy

 

Thanks. I want to see how these things settle in and start growing. Acan 3 is really looking a lot better.

 

Looking good!

 

Honestly, if "Acan 3" hadn't looked as good as it does, I probably wouldn't have gotten more yet. It's also the first time I've even seen Acanthestrea Echinata. I'm just hoping they color up a bit more intensely. Acan 3 seems to be a little lighter than the colors it initially had.

 

one full day in the tank

 

I'm debating cutting or popping these off their frag plugs and mounting them tomorrow. Is it too soon? I also had to turn up my LEDs a bit. The RBTA that split has been reaching for some light and I have to appease it or else it won't quit shading out the smaller clone.

 

Due for an update I suppose. All frags have been mounted and look to be really loving life.
I see several new heads on this one.



Just after feeding... normally it's nice and swollen (even more than the previous Acan). It eats like a pig, even taking small pieces of shrimp (larger than brine or mysis).


New fish really seems to like the decoration of this little cave.

 

Great looking corals, Jimmy. Keep the updates coming.

 

I'm still trying to decide between weekly and biweekly updates. Seems like everything is happy
