    Posted: August 01 2008 at 3:32pm
I had a little time to play with my camera, so I decided to try my hand at taking pictures of my corals under actinics.  Some turned out great, others are so-so. 
This post will serve two functions, 1 for me to show off my coral and 2 to have all of you tell my what my corals are. LOL  I will put ??? by the ones I am not sure of.  Anyway there are a ton of pics, so hopefully I didnt overdue it. 
Thanks for lookingBig%20smile

OK, here goes my guesses (please forgive the spelling):
 
1) Alveopora
2) Goniopora
3) Yellow Slimer
4) and 5) Frogspawn (#5 is a closeup)
7)Zoas (Eagle Eyes?)
8) Yellow Polyps
9)Galaxia
10) Zoas Again (maybe those are the Eagle Eyes? Where's Eva - she would know LOL)
11)Superman?
12)??? not sure what type of Acan
13) Green Palys
14) Green Candy or Trumpet
15) - the rest I have no clue other than genus names
 
How'd I do? (At least on the first 14 Wink)
 
BTW the pics are all awesome!
