I haven't shared pics of my 75 in a while and I got a new bubble coral today
so i thought that I would take the oppurtunity to share the new guy and some pics of other stuff as well. Enjoy.

Thanks for the nice words everyone. It is not as nice as some on here, but we enjoy it at our house.

I tried to get some pictures of the fish in the tank today. Not an exercise I undertake very frequently because I am not good at it at all. It is so much easier to take pictures of corals just because they are not in constant motion and trying to get them in focus is so much easier. I figured I would share a few that turned out ok. So here are the moving members of my little peice of the ocean.

deejeff442-- Thank you. I think you are probably referring to the monti caps. One of the easier SPS to care for, but probably not a beginner coral. It was my test coral to see if I was ready for SPS when I decided to start trying them about a year and a half ago. It has been fragged a handful of times since then since it seems to grow pretty quickly and will shade over other corals if I don't keep it trimmed back.

scottallert--Thanks for the kind words. The tentacles are out because I had recently fed the tank. That seems to be when the camera comes out around here is when the tank has been fed and I am just sitting back and enjoying watching everything.
The tentacles on just about all my lps come out any time I feed the tank. I think that it is due to the fact that I feed them twice a week and I always feed them right after I feed the tank. They learn the routine and when food hits the water they are looking for theirs even on the nights when they don't get fed.

Florida Joe--My tank is not much compared to many on here, but for what it is I owe a lot of gratitude to people on these boards like yourself who are always there with information/experience to help me become a better reefer. A big thanks to you and everyone else who helps me out not only by the things that they respond directly to me, but also to the help they give others that I learn from as I read other threads as well.
Thanks everyone.
