Anyone Seen These?

[vuqchu]

Frequent lurker on the board but I take terrible pictures so have not posted much. I've been wanting to ask the experts on here to see if anyone knows what these are called and finally got someone to help me take clear enough pics to actually see. Thanks in advance!

This one is a table for sure and if I hit it with enough light, the tips will actually turn bright orange



This one looks like some kind of tort to me and the tips are glowing neon green



This one was a brown nub when I got it and so many people have called it so many things that I don't even know anymore hahaha!


I was sold this as the ORA purple nana and it looks more purple side way

I'm holding this as a backup for a buddy's colony. I don't see any blue polyps

The second and third looks like a ice/fire and red planet aussi variant.

Wow, great pics. Do you know what camera was used to take the pics? Do you have a tank thread? Your corals look pretty awesome! :beer:

Thank you sir! It was a Canon T3i with a 50mm macro lens. I don't have a tank thread

I think its high time you had a tank thread. Seriously, you have an awesome acro collection...some highly sought after pieces there and they look GREAT! What lighting and filtration are you running?

 

[Pife]

Great pictures. You have some great colors.

 

[rovster]

You running LEDs?

Thank you guys!

I've been meaning to keep a thread if anything to have a place to keep track but just never got around to it.

Tank is a 75g Visio Starfire Rimless
Light: ATI 8 bulbs dimmable sunpower. I want to add a couple Kessils to it for the shimmers but the light is so big that there is no where to mount it without it looking all weird.
7" sock and Cadlights 1150 skimmer (Wanted to put in a higher rated skimmer but doesn't fit so this works)
Dosing: Kalkwasser and 2 parts (cbalance) and amino acid (acropower)
No reactor but passive carbon (bag floating in sump)

That's pretty much it. I try to keep it as less work as possible. Meaning just a 4-5 gallon water change a week, swapping out the sock, and dumping skimmer cup

Here is shot of tank. This tank has been running since around September 2014 after I transferred from a 60g cube because it was getting a little tight and some of the corals were zapping each other

Most grown from frags a little over a year ago except for the Purple Monster colony. That came from Gumma1 (hey Mike!) who I know frequent this board now and then

I think purple nana is probably right for the last one. The second one appears to be a Cali tort type, it'll become clearer as it grows upward more. It's certainly not icefire/echinata IMO. First is a red table.

I don't think there's any way your friend's coral is actually german blue polyp, nothing about it looks right structure, species, or color wise.

The corals and colors look great, keep up the good work!

Tank and corals look incredible Vu! Nice to see how much things have grown. Keep it up!

 

[vuqchu]

Thanks Ron! Hope all is well. Looks like you're getting ready to get a bunch of nice stuff for your tank

 

[sahin]

Thanks for posting the tanks details. Tank looks great.

I honestly thought you were running LED's as well. What is your T5 tube combo? And what salt do you use? Thanks.

Nah, my tank is like walmart compared to your baller collection! I gotta come by soon with my fragging clippers.

 

[Volcom698]

Great looking tank! Looks like you have an apex controller? What all do you have with your apex? Which dosing pump is that?

Sahin has spoken. A tank thread you will create!(I agree with Sahin)

 

[ronvdp]

I haven't seen your tank since you switched to T5, curious about the light combo and schedule as well. I've just switched to a ATI power module w 6 bulbs and am thinking about adding a Kessil 150/160 just for the shimmer. I may have just enough room.

Also, how is your Kalk dosed-timer?,ph controlled?
