Lemon's butterflyfish dominated reef

I love the desalwi. But too bad i cant keep SPS, unless i find one tat dun need lights!

desalwii is one of my fav SPS also. coz it's tabling and i love tabling. there are many tablking SPS but desalwii is easy and the light undertones contrasting with the darker tips add so much contrast.

Wa a paper on identifying filament x yellow fin!

I'm one of them who care about these hybrids, this kind of subtle hybrid is better left to a fairy wrasse geek like u

paper?

where got. it's just a casual description only.

for those who want to find hybrids next time.

the most obvious and most beautiful of ALL hybrid flashers that are commonly available is lineopunctatus X angulatus.

i'm still in search of this and hopefully one day i will find it.

Bought a very nice big colony of Acropora desalwii yesterday.

It was a gorgeous tabling fanning piece. but it was very big. Too big in fact, so i had no choice but to frag it into smaller, more managable pieces.

It's not something i wanted to do and the nice beautiful shape was gone, but now at least i have many frags of them to plant around my tank.

here's one of the larger frags....

wow! nice desalwii!

[yikai]

wow! nice desalwii!

it WAS nicer

[Eniram]

What do you mean it was Nicer? Before you frag them?

[yikai]

What do you mean it was Nicer? Before you frag them?

yup.

before i fragged it the shape was much nicer. it tabled out like a fan.

but it was too big so i fragged it.

[Eniram]

Don't worry too much with your husbandry it will eventualy fan out

[yikai]

green pipe organs from tonga.

this one has a bright yellow mouth but i cannot capture it.

oh well

[yikai]

green with white skirting pipe organs.

with time, the polyps should expand bigger.

[yikai]

some funny leather coral from tonga too..

[yikai]

this yellow Sarcophyton elegans was so hard to obtain....

but the yellow is hard to capture in photograph.

oh well

[cedricang]

Very nice, i like the white skirting one, very bushy and healthy looking

[yikai]

neon green nehpthea from top view.

this one was gotten from some mystery reefer who left his or her frags at iwarna to sell. was at the right place and the right time i guess.

[mengyang_neo]

nice, the funny leather coral look like sps with very healthy poly extention.

[yikai]

for some reason this hammer coral is very very popular.

it seems that everything i keep tries to host in it.

and my skunk clown is fighting day and night over it with my ocellaris.

thanks! this one also very hard to obtain coz got competition.

it's getting common now thanks to fiji and tonga shipments.

long ago it was very rare and when i show this picture to one of the reefers here, he told me it was plastic corals.

it does kinda look like plastic flowers though.

nice, the funny leather coral look like sps with very healthy poly extention.

haha.
