the LFS was having a huge sale (Biffy-dont miss it SWS 50% off all corals through tomorrow) and I scored two GREAT deals! I am going out of town tomorrow and lights are already out so no pics tonight. You are going to have to wait til I get back to find out what they are and see the awesome pics. any guesses?

:D:D:D I know :D:D:D Sorry Yote, not Zoos. I got two corals and they are not anything than I already had in the tank.
 
OK for those of you turning blue, you can stop holding your breathe, I am back in town and home when the lights are on, so as promised... here are some pics. drum roll please......
Frogspawn (I got a great deal on these two heads because they came from a tank that crashed and they were suffering. They are two surviving heads of 8 or 9. They are coming around and starting to open and I know they are going to be great. I have wanted frogspawn for a LONG time now!)

and Trachyphyllia (another one I've had my eye on for a while)

I don't know if it's just that I am getting more picky or if my camera is wearing out but I definately think I could benefit from a better camera the pics just don't do my beautiful corals any justice.
 
New fish added: White Cheek Tang
He is still pretty shy but I got him to pose for one shot. Meet Milo:

This I don't like! I haven't gotten a good look at him yet, but I was told that he wouldn't color up until he matured. Do you have any pics of what the white cheek juv. looks like?
 
You are right. I ordered it based on scientific name and didn't actually see it till it arrived. When I said that it was missing the white markings, I was told to give it time and that it would color as an adult which didn't sound right but I am still a newb so...
