Ok I'll take the sun polyps, mandarin and a little piece of xenia. It's awesome, I'm upgrading so I'm getting some ideas.

That is gorgeous gvv, at least we now know it is possible to have stunning saltwater and planted tanks under the same care. Well done, it is especially nice to see some fish with all that life in there too.

When I get my 90 started I hope it gets to look half as good as that.  Congrats!  That mandarin looks incredible!

Full tank shots please, quit holding out.

Happy you liked them.
The problem with full tank shots is: I have to go away from the tank and it is difficult to see details anymore. And I should say, my tank does not look great  :-[ - I saw better tanks.
But I will post some pics as soon as I will finish with the wall around the tank, as it is in-wall tank.

Regards

The BTA is VERY shy!
Actually it is very interesting - it attached itself to the bottom of the stone with galaxea coral and during the day it appears, but don't disturb the galaxea. As soon as MH are down - it hides under this rock. But you are right I should get its picture...

Hi Az,
Nope, the llast two pics- hairy mushrooms. They are not very agressive, but still can sting and when the maroon clown dropped one of them onto xenia, xania was not happy at all.
Cloase up picture of Galaxea with Spionid worms in it - sw_tank_05.jpg. But should say in the battle with anemone there are no aggerssive corals - they all loose... I'm not spot-feeding Galaxea, but it may catch some shredded shrimp when I'm feeding sun coral. I was sure it is mainly use photosyntesis...
One thing I cannot understand is what causes the sting polyps to appear - I mean these several inches long polyps. At one time I saw a lot of them but now don't see any single one.

BTW, I was unable to add comments to pictures - this feature is not supported?

Thanks for posting, looks great.  May I suggest a few more mushrooms, it's amazing how quickly these guys will spread around the tank.

What is the coral "rock" on the sand bed bottom right?  2nd from wall.

Is the guy going faster than the speed of light a lipstick tang?

This is funny, but except hairy mushrooms all other mushrooms are not spreading at all - I have the same number of them I put 6-7 months ago...

There are 2 sun corals there: one yellow and another pink. I found on the back glass 2 very small polyps (about 2mm in diameter) of my pink sun coral - it started breeding...

:) Yes! I know that people will say they grow large... I will see what to do when he will overgrow the tank, but for now... I wanted him very much  :-[

Over 9 months, my mushrooms have tripled and are decorating the tank to their taste.
Could it be lighting?  Maybe they prefer the pc to halide?

If you ever decide to part with some of the sun polyps, pink or yellow I'm up for one.
