My new friends :D
Well, I went to Cappuchino Bay today in the Atlanta area. I was VERY impressed with...no I was totally STUNNED by...the selection of corals there!!
I got me an emerald crab, a small ricordia frag, a rather large Yellow Finger Gorgonia stalk, and an orange Linkia starfish.
We've been wanting a starfish for some time now and I felt my tank was ready for her. I have some bubble algea and thought I'd get me an emerald to see if he'd eat the algea. If not, no biggie cause I've been wanting one of the crabs for a while now 
I have been wanting a ric for some time too and decided to get one while I was there even though the price was rather steep ( $30 per polyp ).

I didn't notice these bad spots when I bought him..No biggie...I just clipped them and made a small frag from one of the clippings.

The gorgonia looks great! And I'm a big fan of emeralds - in fact my tank is running a bit low on them at the moment....
