Deanos' 120g Reef

[masterswimmer]

Sorry for the crappy quality pix in your hifalutin thread. But I still haven't seen another red open brain like this one. I'd love to know if anyone out there has one. I've been looking all over trying to find more, unsuccessfully.

Thanks for letting me 'jack your thread.

:wow: Pretty in pink!!

That coral looks very Lobo-ish, which come in more varieties then Trachys.

..not one thing in this tank that is less than WOW!!...go you!

You're going to love that Canary, as Ink said, never shy, mine is the friendliest wrasse in my tank, always out front trying to get my attention. Is yours young?

 

[Deanos]

I don't think she's that young...at least 3" :flirt:

Thanks, but like I said, my pic taking is for the birds. It is bright red. Looks more red in some pix than others. I think you might be right about it being in the lobo family. Not the typical lobophyllia I'm used to seeing though. Been looking for more of them and can never find any.

Might be a Symphyllia sp.??? Very sweet whatever it is.

Once again, I think you might have nailed it. Took a bit of googling to find a similar type. The closest I found was this.

Thanks for entertaining my hijack BD. :backtotop

Target-feeding Central: a few morphs of Tubastrea Sp.

The black sun corals in the rear are tough to photograph :headache: I'll try again with a tripod.

Nice! Dean is yo' tank BB? It looks BB in the pics or you got some really really nice sand

 

[Deanos]

Thanks Chong & Kris! :flower:

Kris, it's not barebottom. It's mostly Nature's Ocean Marine White Sand #0 (Grain size: 0.1-0.5mm)

[Awibrandy]

Absolutely beautiful, but you know that!
Dean, how do you keep the GSP from spreading to the neighboring rocks?

 

[Deanos]

Thanks Awilda! It's actually Pipe Organ. It's on top of the rock and has only been growing upward and towards the front of the tank.
