    Sounds more like a challenge/dare to me.

    Maybe SD likes having his horse's heads severed and in his bed with him while he sleeps. No mortal is capable of know SD's motives or free-time activities.

    Well, me and Psiclone took a road trip across the border today. Despite him trying to get us lost in an area we were lucky to not get shanked in, I managed to come home with quite a few new frags today. Sorry, some of the pics aren't very good, but I am tired and still having trouble adjusting to the distance and thick glass while shooting in this tank. Anyways, on to the pics!


    What I believe to be purple acro. Much more purple in person than I managed to get a shot of for some reason:

    Purple birdsnest. Still not really opened up in the pic:

    Green and purple something or other SPS. Feel free to ID for me:

    Purple/blue chalice coral:

    Also got a couple different zoo's. Some eagle eyes and some other kind that were pretty cool looking. Will get pics when they decide to grace me with opening up.

    Exotic Aquarium in Sacramento and Your Reef in Auburn. Exotic was really big, but they didn't have much fish wise. Mostly predator/ non reef-safe stuff. But they had tons of corals. Probably around 8-10 frag tanks, all at least 300+ gallons. It was strange though, a lot of stuff they had for really good deals, and other stuff was way overpriced. IMO a lot of the things they had too did not look all that healthy.
    Your Reef was fairly small, but they had a ton of stuff crammed into it. Two cool display tanks too (a 180 and a 600). Decent fish, but they were all fairly big. Lots of corals. And I would say Your Reef definitely had the better customer service and healthier livestock.
