What a long strange trip it's been....

Yup I picked up another spath, a Struber stag, and a Nausta. It's really hard to go wrong with a Nausta or Tenuis. I am off tomorrow so I'll post.
All are doing well.

I do think the Joe and the Borealis look similar but they are not the same as far as I can tell right now.. I may change my mind.

 

FYI ordered the rail for the T5 ATI fixture, should be here today or tomorrow. Same with the MP10...yahooo.

 

And the new landscape with one new A. Spath, two Nasuta and the Struber you can not see. So 4 new acropora, and noooooo more room. MP10QD gets here tomorrow, ooooooo. And I will go on a plug clean up as soon as everyone (acropora people) are acclimated.

 

Nice,
You can surf in there on those waves and the shore break!

 

Would you consider the spathulatas to be their own separate species or a subspecies of millepora as some taxonomists do?

 

I consider them separate. They looks different and act different. I know Veron considers them to be the same. But I have seen some specimens that lean more towards Millepora. Location, location, location.

 

did you see this article? Funny you mentioned this and then I saw this article just earlier this morning. Made me think about the two, hmmmmmmmm

Hadn't seen that, thanks for the link. I've always considered spathulata and millepora different.

 

Awesome, awesome link! Thanks.
