    My tank is still young, around 10 months old.. I'm still learning, so nothing exotic.... Yet ..

    So mine would be my Sailfin Tang ..

    He's healthy, growing good, eats like a Pig..
    And when he has his fins fully open ... Beautiful ..

    Coral, would have to be my Branching Hammer..
    It's large, growing good, and strange.. LOL

    Fav Fish in my yank - Orange Anthia
    I picked him out of a tank full of Anthias that had Ich, it was the only Ich free fish in the tank.Its been in my tank for a few months. It loves the black and white clown fish, always hangin out with them. This fish is exremely peaceful and has a superstrong immune system. Eats everything i feed it and always stays out during the day, very active. It like to rest in the rocks at night. This is a female, i might find her a mate if my LFS ever gets any, i dont know. The colors are stunning. It looks very orange/pink in the shade and yellow/purple under the 14000k Metal Halides. Loves cyclopeeze and copepods in the tank.

    My Sun Coral is also my favorite. About half the size of yours. Best critter would have to be my Purple Lobster. He's too fast to get a photo of sadly. Skittish little fella.

    My mantis shrimp, Mr. Fister.

    My favorite creature from my other tank would probably be my two clown fish. They are awesome.

    Favorite coral: Wam'n watermelon polyps. ;D

    I love our yellow headed pearly jawfish. He hates everything else in the tank, bows up and opens his mouth really big every time anything gets too close to his burrow like snails and crabs and will spit sand at them and try to hit them with his tail lol. He also looks very cool under our lights, his fins have a purple kind of glow and the black stripe across each eye make him look really angry all the time.

    If I stick my hand in there it waves back at me. Does that count?

    Hey, the tank is new, I have to have something to look at!
