Aussie Coral Pics [Lots]

[isjg]

There's been a lot of interest in Aussie corals recently. Mostly Acans and some Duncans. I thought I'd post some pics of some of mine. These are what I currently have in my tank -

Blastos -

Some green Blastos and red Goniapora -

Another red Goni -

Some sort of Faviid. Not sure what but it's got some nice flouro streaks -

Scolymia -

Euphyllia ancora -

E. paraancora

Duncans -

SWEET blastos!

Any chance you could please post pics of them in my blasto thread just under this. I want to get as many morph pics as possible in the 1 thread.

Fungia (or possibly Cycloseris) -

Some sort of Faviid -

Lobophyllia sp -

Acan -

Another Acan (I think. It might be Faviid). Bought it bleached a few weeks ago unsure of what it might turn out to be. It's just starting to colour up a bit and looks like it might be green -

And now for some that I used to have but died. Most after a topup failure while I was away overseas. Was also battling phosphates for a while which was causing major problems but now have that under control.

Platygyra sp. -

Galaxea -

A. hillae (I think. Could be some other Mussid)

Another anchor -

Torch -

Last lot of ex-corals.

Some Acans -

Catalaphyllia -

Well that's it. I hope it gives an idea of what Australian corals are available and we have in our tanks over here. Cheers.

[isjg]

Lighting is 2x54W 20K T5s and 2x150W 10K MH. Photos taken with Pentax Optio S60.

BTW, I also have zoanthids, rics etc but just posted the LPS since it's an LPS forum.
