​I just want to share a couple pics of this coral. The first pic is when I first got it early June 2011. The second and third pic is of the coral last night Feb. 19, 2012.

Yeah me too. These are with htc evo. The latter two were taken at night with a $.99 led light and the flash of the phone.

350gt sps are only for the more experienced reefers. I would recommend a kenya tree for you. J/k you may need some extra calcium but test before dosing.
