Occasionally I post this page in an effort to help others identify what is in their tanks. I hope it proves useful. I do update it from time to time, as I did tonight.

It may take a little time to load if you use dial-up, so please be patient.

Your pictures and descriptions are so helpful, I sent a request to the moderator to make this a sticky at the top of the forum.

Thanks,

Great pictures! Are you looking for others? I have a decent isopod pic if you want it.

 

[Drowningfish]

Great link. Thanks for the info. definetly will come in handy.

I had considered it for a while, but overall, I felt I should only add the things I've had in my own tanks. Currently the octopus and one patch of zoanthids are listed that were not mine, and I've noted it that way.

Debi, do you have a picture of that isopod that is 640 x 480?

 

[dc]

No I don't my hard drive crashed and the only pictures I have were in my fokti album. That's the biggest I have.

Wow melev great work, I seem to remember you (or maybe it was someone else) sometime back who mentioned wanting to do some sort of database, regardless a picture is worth 1000 words. Is this an ongoing project with more pictures? Don't think I'd have anything you'd want, off hand (red & blue crabs, margarita, cerith, turbo, astraea snails, feather duster, tomato clown, green-chromis, blue damsel, coral beauty, *gasp for breath* bubbletip, candy cane coral, bubble coral (sickly free specimin), and probably a few other things I can't think of (damn I need a sig with all this stuff like everyone else!)). But regardless keep up the good work!

Btw it said your perc chummed up with a bubble tip? I'm thinking of tempting fate and putting two different species of clowns in my 135G and was trying to figure out a suitable anemone companion and all the faqs did not list bubble tips for percs (true or false) only the more difficult to keep species, but if I could get a bubble tip for the new clowns that'd be fabulous!

Looks like they have made this a sticky. Thanks ReefCentral.

Marc:

Regarding the photos, I think it would be great if you would be willing to use other people's photos that you felt met your quality/clarity criteria. If you want to disclaim that you didn't take the photo, or give credit to another person, that's your call. The most important thing is matching the photo with the creature's name.

You've done a great job, and I'd like to think that with everyone's help, you could put together an excellant database that would help all of us with identifications. Perhaps at the bottom, you could add links to other identification sites (such as for sponges, or to Dr Ron's)

Keep up the good work,

Roy
