How about a SPS Picture thread!!!!

There haven't been allot of posts in this forum in recent months, so lets liven it up! Let's see your SPS pics!

I'll start it off!

Acropora, Blue tip stag?


Acropora, we call it the RBS (red bug special)


Random corals, stylo is the big one on the left is a stylo, cap bottom center.


I think this is a blue tiped milli, but I don't know for sure.


Green Prostata


I know there are some nice ones out there! It's ok to show off

Here are the only two SPS corals in my tank.

Not going to say colors on them because some disagree on the color

Monti Caps

That's not as easy as it sounds, SPS can be hard to positively ID. I edited my thread to include some names though.

Great pics all!!!! Keep em' commin'!!!
