genicanthus takeuchii hybrid!! omg. with a lamarck? melanospilos? semifasciatus? i think it's a semifasciatus x takeuchii. the vertical bar at the gill cover reminds me of semifasciatus. and the dorsal fin seems very yellow. indicating female/juvenile colouration of semifasciatus -
provided your fish dun eat it first!! D:

leather corals? i only appreciate them for their shape. large sarcophyton will form AMAZING meandering structures and it's just absolutely beautiful. not only that, the tentacles can be very lovely. but for them to show their lovely meandering shapes, they have to grow very large. here are some pictures of them and you will understand what i mean. look at the photo with the entire leather coral reef. stunning. the only thing i dont like about cf leather is the colour and the shapes are ugly. small colonies of leathers are ugly and they need time to grow. -

Reborn brought them in a few months ago. the largest member of the dwarf angels. - Genicanthus takeuchii. Unobtainable unless caught illegally. - Apolemichthys griffis. Uncommon, rather rare, affordable. hawaii shipments. - Centropyge debelius. HOLY GRAIL of dwarf angels. mauritius and reunion island. very very extremely rare. can forget about seeing it here. - Centropyge nahackyi. too rare, too deep, to expensive to even catch. no captive specimens to date as far as i know. 1 in waikiki aquarium (public aquarium). - Centropyge multicolor.

1) cauliflower coral. impossible to keep. don't buy them again next time. requires heavy feeding of phytoplankton everyday. 2) Cynarina lacrymalis. aka cynarina, or donut coral. easy to keep.
