As usual I walked out of the fest with waaaaay more coral than I expected and now have nearly 40 types of coral in my 29 gallon. There are however, a couple spots left that I could put a piece or two. LOL
Anyway I ended up coming with the following:
Cyphastrea from Sone Green Slimer, Scripps Milli, Hawkins Echinata from JB 2 really awesome ULTRA acan frags and a Tokoyo Terror Micro from Cherry Corals
I really need to get out the camera sometime soon and post some newer pics.
So let's here what you guys all got.
