Well thanks to @Shooter000 , @Salty Cracker, @reefdiver, @joemaidment and Sealife Central over the last few weeks I've got a bunch of real purdy sticks, rocks and fluffy things in my tanks!! ;):D I have a couple more members to hit up for frags and then I'm DONE!!! (Ha ... we all know that's not true! :rolleyes:)

Sorry no pics yet as I have some tank maintenance to do and I want to make sure the corals settle in nicely and are showing their true colours. But hopefully in the next week or so I'll post some pics and/or a video showing off some of the recent acquisitions.

I've got an assortment of Zoas, LPS, Montis and other SPS. I finally picked up a small Tyree Leather which has a beautiful neon green. And from Sealife Central I grabbed a couple nice hairy mushrooms and an awesome little Ruby Red Dragonet Blenny that's keeping my Clownfish company in the Biocube. So I'm sure I'll be looking for lots of advice in the near future to help keep my corals healthy.

Just wanted to send some kudos out to all those that have helped to promote my new addiction! And to those of you that are continuing to feed the habit via PMs and Texts.
(You know who you are! LOL) :p:cool:

BTW - When do you decide that you have enough frags/corals? o_O

Dave.

I don't think anyone ever decides enough is enough that's why fragtanks are built and more tanks purchased. Lol.

Wait ... I just realized the drawback with the idea behind that pic. If they get REALLY GOOD at growing corals they'll have lots of $$$$. LOL

Although I guess by the time that happens they'll be adults. (Or so far in debt they won't have extra $$$ for a while!) ;)

:worthless:


So I'm adding a few from the 46 gal. until I can get pics of the BIocube! :D Sorry about the quality of the pics. Eventually I'll get a decent camera and won't have to use my cell phone. LOL

First here is a cool Paint Splatter Mushroom that I got from FragFest. As someone else pointed out to me looks kind of like a Mini-Maxi Carpet. LOL




Next a couple Hairy Mushrooms that I got from Sealife Central.






And finally the little Tyree Leather that I picked up from @joemaidment yesterday. Quite a bit more vibrant than my Green Umbrella Leather! :cool:




That's it for now. I'll try to get some more by the end of the week of the new Zoas, SPS etc. :)

Here are some pics of the corals in my Biocube. As usual cell phone pics so not the greatest. I'm using a cool little app called Magnifier Magnifying Glass that seems to generally work better than my camera app. I've also tried to remove some of the blue as the pics always come out more blue than it looks in person.


Purple Desalwii Acro - (First Acro from BA's)






Key Lime Granulosa




Branching Cyphastrea




Nauti Spiral




Montipora Tri-colour Palawanesis




Montipora Confusa or Spongodes - (Not sure which)





Unknown Green Acro - (Please help to identify this one!)

So that's it for now. Might get a couple more Montis and Zoas but would like to see how these ones do first. My first couple of Zoas - Scrambled Eggs and Ultimate Blow Pops - actually have 2 more heads each so I guess that's a good sign. :D I'll get a whole tank shot at some point but as you see from the pics I need to deal with some algae first. And then I could show off my poor man's dollar store frag rack too! :p
