I've got a coral shipment coming next week that craps all over every other shipment I've gotten so far. No offense to those other corals, but man am I excited!!
 
Incredible corals and pics! That tye-dye is simply spectacular and have always liked the war & peace ! Are you finding all these corals at your LFS?

Thanks for looking!
 
Thanks a lot David. Good luck with your 40 breeder. IMO it's the best standard size for a tank under 50 gallons.
 
nUgz, could you tell me what camera you use to take pictures? very nice tank. the background actually help to highlight your corals.

Thanks! I use a Sony Mavica CD-500. It's an older camera. There are much better and less expensive options available today. Check out the Panasonic Lumix line of cameras if you're in the market for a new one.
 
The pics aren't the greatest and the corals are still settling in, but here we go.

You've got one of the craziest favia collection I've seen. Very nice man. I gotta get my hands on the Tyree Mystic Grape Favia
 
hey nugz, few questions, but first, i love all the corals that you have, they are amazing.

are you planning an upgrade because your tank seems really cramped with all of the stuff that you have, and you seem to have a few echinatas that are pretty aggresive so it seems like you might lose some corals.

where are you getting your corals? internet frag swaps or lfs?

im sure i missed it, but what kind of lights are you using?

Thanks a lot! I'm not going to a bigger tank if that's what you mean by upgrade. I am however setting up another display tank(33 cube) and maybe a frag tank as well. I do lose corals from time to time, but it's more from something getting knocked onto something else. I get a lot of my corals through trades and purchases on this and other forums as well as locally from my LFS and other reefers. I'm currently running a 150 watt Radium 20K halide over this tank, but will switch to LED's as soon as my custom fixture is ready.

So I went out to a local reefer's place last night and picked up something ridiculous!! He's getting out of the hobby. I split this piece with someone. I've only got half of this colony now, so there will be more pics coming. Bazooka Joe ladies and gentlemen!
