hmm... well im looking for an id on the hot pink palythoas zoanthids that i got. And they looked kinda like safecrackers but then i found on a different site armor of god palythoa's and they look pretty much exactly alike. Maybe there is a little bit more blue surrounding the head so maybe they are not.. but they got the 2 bigger lines coming out and look exactly like the pic im looking at other than the ones i got have a little bit more blue.. i wish there wasnt so many.. especially ones that all look about the same...

aww thanks! Ya im really excited! especially with the coral thing since in my 72 i had it like would never keep anything alive for very long.. and now everything so far has lived! The green acro i got had a brown spot on it for awhile when i first got it, but now that seems to have dissapeared. I moved it up a little higher in the light.
Since these photos ive changed a little bit.

haha i will get a lot more pics when i get my new shipment. which im thinking will be tuesday or wednesday.
And thanks, the brown spot thing on the acro had me worried for awhile.
It is definantly rewarding to have the halide. When you get enough money for it (save up!) you have to get some! they are amazing! i have the aqualight pro fixture and i love it.
One question the person im getting my shipment from has the stuff in 400 watt metal halides, and mine i believe are 150, so do i have to do the normal light acclimating (going from bottom to wherever i want them) or just put them right where i want them since they are used to higher light?
