I love that tank so much. Good pics. I also have a 29 reef and it is so hard to find places to put corals in there so they will not sting each other and such. Good job and keep it up......it gives me something to shoot for. I love all of the shrimp in there as well. I am thinking of getting a blood shrimp or another cleaner shrimp as well.

great stuff dan, the tank is gorgeous!!!
on your id q, the brown thing on the left are just brown button polyps. i had a few wo the green center that jsut grew out of my live rock! to the left of that looks like either a goniopora or alveopora. you can tell between the two because goniopora has a golfball shaped skeleton, while alveopora is branching, however both are very closely related!
good luck, i love the red shrooms!

rye - thanks for the compliments .. i love the shrimp in there. thinking of trading the 2 larger cleaner shrimps in for a couple small ones. i like the little baby one, it doesnt take up so much space either. or trading in 1 big for 1 small
jon thanks for the info. thats so cool they just spawned out of the lr.
i noticed some legs of a brittle star i think..coming out of the live rock. very neat
the red shrooms are pretty cool, i want to get a wider variety of shrooms in there.
see ya guys

Thats a 29 gallon tank? Geez. You got that thing nicely crammed. It looked like you have about a grand invested in the corals alone. Any tips on shots? I've just started trying my hand at it. I know RYE is really good too.
