It's snowy so I can't go anywhere so here are some more pics of my tank.
1. Blue ricordia
2. Candycane coral - NEW
3. Featherduster
4. Green ricordia - if you look carefully you can see the one has three mouths!
5. One of my favorates, green finger leather.

A few more:
1. Some green zoos - I recently fragged these guys off of the rock my green finger leather is on.
2. A mushroom frag - this guy has been through a lot and still alive, it would appear near impossible to kill a mushroom.
3. Just some green and some red zoos.
4. Not sure what this is - if you know PLEASE ID
5. Last but not least more Xenia... awesome looking coral, just grows too fast.

bayside - nope, my hammer doesn't grow that fast, but then again I haven't had it for too long. It is rather large so I suppose eventually I should frag it and see if I can trade it for some frogspawn or something.
Bronco300 - I don't think it is galaxea because I haven't seen any sweeper tenticles and I think the polyps are too small.. If it helps for identification the skeleton is very thinly branched..

Yes, tube like branches. I don't know much about galaxea but I thought they had larger polyps. I had thought it might be a type of pociliopora but I don't know...
tall-90 - The sun coral opens up for cyclopeeze. I wouldn't put it in a cave if I was you, put it one the sand somewhere you can cover it, then put a little cyclopeeze in the tank, wait for it to open, then cover it and shoot a lot of cyclopeeze or whatever food you're feeding under the cover so it can eat.

Well I use a cut off two liter bottle, I used the bottom and drilled a small hole in it that I use to shoot the cyclopeeze in. Other people have used tuperware or whatever fits to cover it. It keeps the food from blowing all over the tank and if you have pesky hermit crabs or shrimp it keeps them from stealing all the food. I usually leave it covered over night. I feed it with the cover atleast every other day, in between I might just feed the tank with cyclopeeze because I'm sure everything else likes the extra food too.

I've been looking and the polyps do kind of look like galaxea. I'm going to do some research on galaxea and see if it is.

Thanks for taking the time to take the picture, its hard to tell but it isn't quite the same. Here I'll try to take a picture of the skeleton on mine.

Well it was a good idea, it still may be, someday I'll figure out what it is...
I did some quick searching again and found one Stylophora sp. that looks similar too but I haven't heard anything about it from other hobbiest....
TriGa22 - I don't know, althought lately I've noticed a slow down in it growth and some has even started to die off.

It is still snowy so I don't have much to do.
I think I killed my acropora, after the avalanche I tried using underwater epoxy to mount it again and when I put it back it was all white and covered in slime. I hope it recovers but I don't know anything about SPS corals
The purple gorgonian was my valentines day present and the cleaner shrimp is an old friend.
