Thank you. Sorry I just saw this: BRENT CHENEY is my name. My Facebook Name is "Brent TurtleFactory"
That was actually tough competition. I really liked Billy's and that one of the clowns from above was unreal.
Thanks guys!

that is a gorgeous pic! What kind of coral is that? Are they hard to keep? It makes me think of little bonsai.

Thanks for the kind words. The tank has been under construction the past 3-4 months actually, so it's not looking too good, but will continue to grow and improve.
The blue one in the center is a blue sea fan/ gorgonian. From my research, they are more of a sponge than a coral. I dose some of the reef nutrition supplements so that it can feed. I keep it in constant flow 24/7 as well. I have had it a month or two and it seems to be doing great. I don't really think they grow or anything. Just survive. I have read they do poorly in aquariums, but so far so good.

If they don't grow how do they survive?? Can't just come from nowhere?

They grow in the ocean. Just not in the at home reef.

They can grow, but it's more similar to a sponge growth than a normal coral and even if they grow in the tank, it is extremely slow.
