the first pics are of an acropora granulosa,after doing a dip and strip the coral was acclimated from bottom to half way up over 4 days. I really like the colors of this one...cream to tan branches to purple tips...so cool:).the other pics are of a solar wrasse. Poor guy spent 6 weeks in QT. Because I also have a six line wrasse I had to trap the six line and switch him with the solar in QT for 7 days then re-introduce him so that he would'nt lay the proverbial boots to the solar wrasse.This method actually worked really well as they haven't fought at all and have begun to swim together!!:strange:...The solar wrasse has such beauty and a great personality I think I made a great choice on a new addition to my tank that I think was missing:beer:
