Picked up part 2 at about 11pm and spent the evening acclimating and aquascaping...until about a quarter to 5am...
. I'm still recovering, but it was worth it.
People constantly rave about Richard's generosity and I was expecting a really nice assortment of things, but I was completely unprepared for what he sent- it blew me away. He even sent two really neat fish (a tiger goby I believe, and some type of cool blennie), but they have so far been a little camera shy.
Richard- thank you for the incredible work and generosity which you have shown- I will be enjoying this for years to come and will definitely be in touch when I set up future tanks.
And now without further adieu... the pictures:
The front of the tank:

The left side:
A yellow ball sponge with an attached star coral:
A really interesting red sponge:
An orange fan-like sponge:
A star coral colony:
A neat little cup coral:
And finally, a beautiful corralimorph, tinged light pink and green (unfortunately, the pic does it no justice). I've never seen one like this before- any one know the species?
