I'll show you mine if you show me yours! ... Star Polyps
These colonies grow so fast I take an image once a week to compare growth. I've seen some spetacular images especially of the electric green star polyps. I'd like to see what others have shot.

Just an FYI update.
The first and last of my pictures are both of two diff kinds of star polyp. In both picyures the front kind has a purple base mat and grows slow, also not as bright (tenties might have more serrated edges too). The kind in the rear has a tan base mat, grows fast and glows brighter, with smooth tenties.

I kinda like it, the soft focus effect gives you a 'feel' for the environment.
