Jokers

Red Mushroom

Ricordia & Button Polyps

Don't have a positive ID on these, got the frag from Max....anyone? Sorry this isn't as crisp as the others. Couldn't get a straight-on shot with these next two pics.

No positive ID on these either. I looked through ZoaID.Com and can't find anything like them. Skirts are green, center is kind of a pastel lavender. Personally I don't care if it's just a common or not. The colors are fantastic on all of these corals.

Will post more after I adjust my camera's WB and calibrate my laptop's monitor. As nice as these look, the colors are still not true to the real thing.

I agree, that first picture rocks! Are they really that purple? Might have to hunt me down some of those.
BTW, what camera are you using?

Rob, about time you started posting pics

I have to give him some credit, this is the guy who showed me how to use my camera. He's got an amazing looking bowfront with some of the best looking zoa's I've ever seen.
Here's a pic of his tank.....

Here's a frag of the Jokers that I got from Rhagemann (Rob), you gotta love these colors
......Just wish my colony was as big as the one Rob has.....Notice that ultra nice colony of Tubs Blues, even got a frag of those as well...

They really are that purple, take a look at the pic Max posted; that frag is from this bunch.
I bought the frag in So Cal last fall (either Jul or Aug) it had 4 polyps so as you can see, it's growing pretty strong so far.
Plan to shoot the Tubs & AoGs today. Will try to post more then....thanks for the props all.
Camera - Rebel XT
Lens - Canon 100mm f2.8

Wished I could do wider shots but as you've seen, my glass is in terrible condition(plus the bowfront factor). In fact, I had to take these pieces and put them in my 24 NC just so I could get clean shots. Can ya hear the rationale for a new Starfire tank encoded in this post?

It really does sound like you need to upgrade.
After all, you are running out of room. I've heard a lot of good things about those Starfire tanks. Might look into getting one when I move and upgrade.

Main tank (posted by Max able) is a 72 Gl Bowfront. Bought it was more interested in a reef then taking pictures of one...LOL.
These pics are taken from a 24 Gl NC. Yesssss I need to upgrade to a larger tank. Bummer is, I really like the looks of bows and FBH's but they SUCK for pics.
