    Took a few pics last night.  I just have a point and shoot (Canon Powershot SD 850is with original firmware), but I used an underwater enclosure and I think they turned out OK.  I don't know how to take good pics so I just put it on macro mode and let it auto adjust everything.  I'm sure I could get better pics if I knew how to use my camera better.
    My tank has been set up for a few months, with some of these starting out as frags a few months ago, and others being transferred from my nano.  Most of these corals are still scattered around my tank in a location other than what they will eventually call home.  I need to get my final placement done and take some full tank shots.
    Also, if anyone can identify those that I've indicated as unknown, I would really appreciate it.

    Sure.  I started out with two polyps from Trevor back at Fall Fest...they really grow fast.  Maybe I can bring a couple polyps to Spring Fest with me to trade.

    Aj,
    How are the 400w bulbs working out for you? I am thinking of switching my 250w 14k hamelton bulbs out for 400w 20k radiums but I'm a little woried that it might be overkill. Have you had any problems with the lights frying any corals?

    Nope...you ought to see the Superman monti that's just a few inches from the water surface...really doing good. I took a pic of it the other night but never uploaded it. Let me see if I can upload it.

    I've heard good things about the Radium bulbs...but never had them. I think Cagri has them...switched from Reeflux 20K to Radium 20K.

    I'm going to make the switch to radiums eather way and my ballists are switchable and the 250w and 400w radiums are the same price so I figgure I might as well get the 400w bulbs.
