    I always had a hard time identifying these two, the difference is milleporas grow uneven tips where the tips on prostratas are fairly level.

    ORA Miami Orchid picture is blurry because I had to shoot at an angle through the glass.

    The next two are the same coral, I don't have an ID on it though

    I wanted to show that this coral has 2 different colored polyps. Unfortunately the green in the back has not grown on any branches. I hope the polyps on the nub on the right are green and stay that way. Dead area caused by poor maintenance. And yes the polyps are tiny.

    Wow! And wow again lol. Looking through your pictures I feel as if I'm looking at a sponsers ad! As someone that is in the beginning stages of reefing, I'm envious, and yet reenergized to think that this level reefing can be done by the hobbyist. Thank you for your pictures and continued advise.

    Thanks

    Thank you very much, I am humbled by your praise.

    Take your time and learn all you can about reefing and your intended inhabitants and your will reach your goal.

    Thanks, that is actually pretty close to how the chalice looks in the tank.

    Congrats on getting closer with the 75. It took my several months to get everything in place to set up mine.
