First of all I need to publicly thank MAX for an absolutely awesome deal. Definitely the best deal I've yet to come across so far in this hobby. The frags arrived in great shape mounted very nicely and all look phenomenal! I didnt get a chance to take photos of everything he sent, but here are a couple quick shots of some of them. Also I am including some other randoms of new acquisitions as well. I will take better pics tomorrow with a different camera, as mine is pretty poor. These pics do not do the corals justice. Hope you enjoy.

max, I now this is a type on monti. Do you have an exact ID for me? It is very nice and was quite a surpirse, thanks a lot
You also can see the purple haze in the bottom right.

bad pic of 3 of the 5 montis he sent. Superman on right, purple haze on left.

Here is a very bad pic of the eden micro. very sweet.

max would you place up hi in the tank? I have it pretty hi up right now. It has great polyp extension already. I have full faith it's going to color up awesome!

A very sweet acro colony. Very nice colors that my camera defnitely cant catch.Im amazed how tough this type of acro is!!I dropped it on accident and it didnt even break at all! Polyp extension was instant! No damage was done thankfully

haha, Dude you should jump on those rics too. That is an insane deal. If not ill sell you one of them for what I paid per polyp. If you really want a good deal, definitely get up on a frag pack from max on his 2nd go around. Well worth it.
Grabbit-Thanks for the props on my tank

Your tank looks awesome, love the ric collection

.
Did the acro crab thats in one of the colonies survive the trip?.....
.
Montipora Undata, one of my favorite corals, the color is insane under right lighting. High flow and lighting.
.
Micro, high light and flow. Feed every other day, grows like crazy.
.
The other frags should be fine to pop off the reefplug, kinda why I frag them onto dead pieces of coral and then glue that to the reefplug.
.
Thanks...Jim

Heres a good pic of the Undata....The polyps develop a deep teal color under really highlighting and the body becomes more neongreen.

I've never had a problem with it, some frags have tiny little areas but it never gets out of hand or becomes a problem IMO

Thanks again Max! Undata was what I figured it was. It really is an awesome piece. Pictures don't do it justice IMO. Great color, a very cool neon yellow/lime. I cant wait to see how it colors up once its adjusted to my tank.
I looked really well for the acro crab before I put it in the tank and couldn't see him anywhere
There was definitely no DOA crab in the bag, so I hope he made it and was just hiding really well. I'll look better today once the lights come on.
I don't know if you can tell where I have the sunset, but it is way hi up under direct lighting. Obviously they need hi light, but do you think this may be to close to the light for right now as it's new to my tank? I don't want to stress it anymore then it already is from the shipping.
I will definitely be popping the frags off the plugs, I really like the way you mounted them that way. I need to go to my LFS to get some small rubble type rocks to mount the frags on.
Grouper, that hair algae was gone in seconds. Seems the clean up crew/lawmower can really tell when fresh "meat" has entered the tank. They were all over it almost instantly

I'll try and take some better pics today.

I always start new corals at the bottom of the tank just to be on the safe side....Jim
