the orange thing is a Yuma Ricordia. bright orange/pink/blue yumas are VERY hard to come by. A few people on this board have one but not many thats for sure. Most of the time when you find one its being sold for an crazy amount of money.
you can find florida ricordia that are orange but the super bright yumas are the charished ones by most.

I love your tank! What's the purple and white one? I want to say Purple Wrasse, but I know that's not it. 
It's pretty!

that is the home to a single fire shrimp. its also his cleaning station. the fish line up there and take turns in frount of the whole. then the shrimp coems up and runs all over the fish.
then the next fish comes up. its also the place he comes to when he wants me to spot feed him. the shrimp will run all over my arm and hands when i put it in the tank.

alot of the rock in that tank is home made. The very large piece on the bottom left is home made and the large piece with the big hole is also home made. The rest is natural.
We made the rock from nothing more then portland cement and caribian sand. We made it very poruse and then seeded it in grow out tanks for a few months to make it live.
We find that the home made rock takes on new growth such as coraline MUCH faster the the natural rock did. Things like shrooms also seem to attach alot faster as well. after about 6 months you could no longer tell the live from natural. all covered in coralline.
thanks for all the great comments

Oceana- I still love your l/r, and I am amazed at the coralline algea on it. How long did it take for it to start?
