    Watermelon zoas.

    Purple photosynthetic gorgonian. This one has a distinctively flat "stalk", can't wait to see how it looks grown out. I now have 4 different photosynthetic gorgs in this tank.

    Lime green goniopora. This one is aquacultured, grown from frags, so it should be a good candidate for my tank. This doesn't look like the one that is a "sure bet loss" that everyone dreads. Hard to see in the pics, but it actually does have blue dots in the center.

    I ADORE goniopora.

    I used to have a red one that had blue centers, and was spoiled for all time. But this green one is pretty schnazzy. I sold the red one when I took that tank down.... and man did that hurt me lol.

    Now I can't find another one for less than $80-100 that's anything like it. I'm a $20 frag guy, if it costs more than that, I'm not getting it lol.

    Here is a video of my reef. Pardon the background noise. I'm a loser at video stuff-- but you can see most of what's in this little tank.

    Meanwhile, if anyone can suggest some free video editing software that I could use to put some music in the background of this, let me know!





    I have a sweet, long shelf rock that I made for this tank that I need to get to soaking. I'll be moving away in about 6 months, so when I do, I plan on having that rock fully cured (cement) and cycled, and ready to go. It will really add that extra dimension to this tank.

    Nice video, You have a really nice looking tank. I know Youtube has a few editing things you can do on their site.
