It's been awhile since I've posted here, and quite frankly done much other than test me levels and water changes. That's what happens wehn one works 60+ hours a week and has a 6month and 3.5 year old at home.

Anyways.... here are some additions to my 100 gallon. Got each one for around $20-25 each.
1. Toadstool
2. Frogspawn (not open yet)
3. Tongue Coral? Verfication please?

Enjoy! Dxtr

Great toadstool. Went to LFS to look at theirs but they didn't look good. Bottom was black and not attached to rock very well. I am going to keep on looking though.

Thanks for all the comments!

I acclimated all three of them for 30 minutes for temperature and then drip acclimated each seperately for about an hour and a half.
Yea, I didn't see the sally either
He is the sole survivor of the 3 that I started with. I think he ate the other 2!

very nice looking additions......I seldom see folks keeping tongue corals....let us know how it does. I didn't see the sally at first either....but I saved the photo and edited it in photoshop to check it out. I had to adjust it a bit to actually see the sally.....my eyes are gettin' too old for some stuff but photoshop helped a bunch.....

tis OK with me

I love seeing anything NM posts on here. The Sally is around 3+ inches. I'll get a pic of her when I get back home.
I am out of town on Bizness right now, but will post follow up pic of the tanka nd definately the tongue coral. I can say that within an hour after acclimation, the tongue was open and fully extended.

I had one for a few months...but it didn't do well. I also only have PC's. Mine wasn't quite as big, but had the same color. I think mine was called a slipper tongue or something.
