New Corals
These rics came with my clean up crew last month. I was trying to get them to attach before I took their pictures but the blue is being stubborn about attaching to the rock.

The Green stars and the purple mushroom came on the same rock. I got these yesterday from the LFS.

These are Dragon Eye zoos that I got off of somebody. I got a good deal on them. They was 10.00 and 10.00 to ship. I have seen them so for 8.00 each polp. This picture doesn't do them justice. the orange and green is very bright in person.

Thanks for sharing your photos It looks like your tank is off to a great start. Before you know it the blushy leather will be the size of a football! Nice orange Ricordea and zoos! Beware of the green star polyps though as they will attach and overgrow any rock that they touch. They will probably grow faster than anything else in your tank. How many peppermint shrimp do you have?

The blue ric is very nice too. Sometimes they can be a pain to attach but it looks like you are off to a good start.

I wish I would of know the star polps grow that fast. I guess I will be pruning them back. But that is why I haven't bought xenia cause of the growth. The green attached quicker then the blue. I got 3 peppermint shrimp from Florida Pets.

Glad to hear that you have 3 peppermint shrimp. They do best in a minimum of groups of three. Often times if yuo just have one they will tend to be timid and shy and not come out as much as if you have a small group.
The green star polyps will likely grow about as fast as xenia will...but hey I know of a great website where you can trade some frags of it when it begins to overgrow your tank!   |

Oh you should see my peppermint shrimp, when I put something new in the tank all 3 of them make a mad dash over to it. They have to make sure that it is okay. One of them gave me a frieght this week. It decided to molt on the day I did a water change. I thought for sure I killed one of them until I noticed that it was the shell. I am still fighting the alkalinity. But it is not as high. It is 12.2. And that was after a water change.
