I have a small red monti cap frag, a leather (I think it's a cabbage), some mushrooms, a palythoa of some sort, a couple of yellow polyps, some small unidentified polyps on the same rock as the palythoa, and a few colonies of these individual little purple polyps that are spread throughout one of our display tanks at the store. Sorry I can't be more specific but I am only just starting to learn about reef tanks; what I have now (setup included) was all given to my by the store precisely so I would learn about them and hopefully become passionate about them, but at this stage I'm still having difficulty identifying the various types of coral.

I really don't know why we continue to get porcs. They always seem to be emaciated, with no appetite, and then after a day or two they ich out, stop swimming, and die. It makes me ill to see it, and it makes no business sense either because they never make it long enough to get sold. Every other puffer we get is beautiful, active, and eats like a pig...or, well, puffer.
She hid for a few hours, but now she's out exploring, and she's already eaten a bit of mysis shrimp, which I was glad to see.
