Gotta love that macro !


Well brad thanks so much for taking the pics. I know that Jeff (junkzoo) is just waiting to get his hands on my polyps. Well now he at least has proof that they exist. The pic does tend to blue them up a bit. they are in fact more of a sky blue. So thanks again... I am always in debted to one or more of you guys.

Yep Jeff that's them. and the only thing wrong with your post is the fact that borrowing implies return. Once I give you some of these you'll never want to return them. I owe you soooooooo much now. The knowledge that you have shared with me surely deserves some polyps in return. I am going to try to get them to spread to a nice piece of lr for ya. I guess that is what it will take to get you this far north. I may be ready for the hood switch next weekend, how is that for you ?

Queen conch


That is a queen conch, I have two in the tank. They have both been more or less dormant for about two weeks now. However occasionally they can be seen poking their heads out of the sand, which is how brad caught this one for me. They are both about 2 - 2.5 in long, and I've had them a little over a year now. I thought they were dead, guess not !
