If the weather keeps me in the house again tomorrow, I will take some high res photos of each of the coral species that I keep and email them to you.

While you are at it, post a few of them here, we want to see them to you know!!

Damn it Gene... why did you have to put up so many gorgeous pictures? Now how am I supposed to decide which ones to use?! Btw, do you have any pictures of those branching montipora I see peeking out from around the plating?

By the way... I still need a bunch of different corals: elegance coral, clove coral, gorgonians, goniopora, heliopora, hydrocorals, more leathers, pipe organ coral, seriatopora...

I'm probably going to have to go to a few LFS and take some pictures. I hope they let me.

Morning Sara, here's a pic of my S. hystrix.



Why don't you try a search on Goniopora, you might come up with a pic there?? I also know there is an elegance pic in the "best of the best".

[sihaya]

Thanks Charlie! You just made my morning.

Oh, I know a lot of the pictures exist! I just need the people who took them to give me the "ok" to use them.

You guys ROCK!!!

I'm SOOOO jealous.... Maybe in a few years...

It's not at all what your looking for, but I just wanted to contribute an interesting picture to this great thread. Keep 'em coming.

What coral is this?

[dragonladylea]

This one has a few different softies, of course the pic is not up to par with some of the others but if you can use it your welcome to it.

Nice Tracey!

Sara, that is a Pavona, or "Potatoe Chip Coral".

Oh awesome!! I was praying you'd come in here Chuck... I've been drooling over your photos for weeks!

Thank you!!

[sihaya]

Oh Chuck, bless you! I thought I'd never get a good Merulinidae family pic!

[charlesr1958]

Very welcome! and if there is any in particuliar you want more of, or a better photo of, just let me and will be glad to do so and email to you.

charlesr1958@pacific.net.ph

Will go through some older files and see what else I have. I had an awesome elegant coral but had to return it to the reef as it grew so very large, second one that has done that to me...lol Not sure if I have a photo of it still but will check!

I have not been able to positively identify this. I don't think it is a pavona, since the branches are too thick and the edges too blunt. Possibly a cat's paw (psammacora sp.)?
