    I can't seem to stop lol.
    Just a few new additions. Pics tomorrow morning when they settle in.

    Red and Green Open Brain Coral
    Some zoanthids that I would need an ID on for sure.
    2 Oscalaris clowns (finally) I think they are a pair.
    Red Mandarin Goby (hoping she starts to eat by tomorrow)
    and 2 peppermint shrimp for my aiptasia.

    Not much but just thought that I'd share.
    I'll post pics in the morning.

    Indeed, it is morning closer to afternoon actually.
    Here we go. I'm a bit worried about the brain. I think it's okay though. What do you think?

    Zoanthids. I don't know if there isa special name for this color? It's actually pink but can't get the true color with the lighting and the camera.

    Can't get a good pic of the mandarin as yet. I'll observe tonight to see if she is eating and pods. Brine shrimp will hatch tomorrow morning.

    Finally I got a nice pair of oscalaris clowns.

    The brain looks good to me. I have a pair of the same clowns. The ones I have were tank raised and will not host an anenome which is fine with me as anenome's are a pain in the neck when they go into the rocks. If they die in there you will see the tank get cloudy with toxic excrements. Which brings me to this question. Do you think you should get more rock? Your tank looks a little baron without more. Just my opinion...

    Cool, I always worry about any new corals that I get. I don't know why.
    The ones I got were also tank raised and they completely ignore the nem. Haven't had any bad experiences with my nems before, thank God for that.

    Yep I agree, I actually took out some rock earlier today. The tank that you see there is just a temp holder tank until I finish with the main display that I finally begun setting up this afternoon... It doesn't have much in it just the clowns, a yellow tang, two blue damsels, a royal gramma, some feather dusters and the carpet nem. I have all my corals in another tank with loads of LR. The new one that I'm setting up is going to have adequate amount of LR;)
