Here is a couple pics of my Zoanthid patch and a full view pic of my tank.

Sean, that is soooo cool. You have achieved a unique look in your aquarium. You get the coveted

What's that yellow at the top right edge of the middle pic. Is that your newest fish, the algae eater you mentioned during my visit last month?

And has the large lettuce nudi from seti007 done any good/ is it still alive?

Thanks very much for the compliments.  That's my goal, to create a unique aquarium, unlike anything else I've ever seen.

I'm getting there but I still have a long way to go.  My plan is to create a tank of super rare species and morphs of SPS, Ricordia Yumas, and Zoanthids.

Right now I have about 35 species of SPS, 5 colors of Ricordia Yumas, and around 20 varieties of Zoanthus polyps.

Mark - I'm not sure what that is in the top corner....could be part of my sailfin tang.  Seti's nudi disappeared after a week.  I haven't seen it since.  I've found that the nudibranches aren't doing much good for the algae.  BUT, I have found a surprise eater of bryopsis.  Keyhole limpets!!! That's right, keyhole limpets are eating my bryopsis patches. 

Things that make you go hmmmmm.

Sean - Did you buy the limpets or just stragglers on some rock?

Ryan - They did come in on some LR.  I have seen about 6 of them in my main tank and a couple in my refugium.  I don't think I've ever seen them for sale by themselves.  I may be wrong though.

Those stragglers... Ffc3 got a bonus when he bought my friends tank... a 4 inch long Chiton that we didn't know was there until we were moving the tank! It couldn't have been longer than 1/2 inch when it hitchhiked in on some rock.
