    I took these last night while taking the Photos of my clowns
    These 2 have to be hands down my favorite pieces of coral,
    well for at least right now! I baby them almost as much as I
    do my Clowns, :D
    Orange sun coral (Tubastraea sp.)
    [​IMG]

    Black sun coral (Tubastrea micrantha), Started with 2 heads
    a couple of months ago, there are 4 more heads in back you cant see.

    [​IMG]

    This Candy Cane (Caulastrea) puffs up so big when the lights are on.
    Almost all the heads ave mulitiple mouths, some as have many as 3.
    See the ones on the left, top and bottom, they are both splitting into
    3 heads each, so cool to watch!

    This is my Torch (Euphyllia glabrescens), My wife and son's call
    it the "Rasta Coral"

    [​IMG]

    This is my little yellow clown goby hanging around it the Xenia garden,
    which needs a weekly trimming its doing so good...

    Last but also one of my fav's is this little guy (yeah I know what it is)
    I have two of these in my 10 gallon. I think they are really cool, and
    they have not spread as of yet. So I am letting them alone watching
    them and enjoying them.

    Very nice photos. KARMA. And in regards to the aptasia, they can become more of a risk in a tank that's not well fed. If you don't feed often you should be better off. My buddy has kept a few that has recently become a problem. He called me last night to see if he could borrow my A. control. Good luck with them and keep a close eye.

    Thank you.

    Oh believe me its well fed, and its not an apstasia (if it was I would have NUKED it long ago!) but it is a majano which as I understand don't propagate as fast. I have a peppermint shrimp that cleaned up on the Aps that were in this tank in a hurry but it leaves these alone... Go figure.

    Great pics:drool: I also have the sun coral and its a pain to feed them. I had the opportunity to buy the black sun coral a couple of months ago, but I didnt. Now I regret it.
