Please excuse my glass I didn't want to disturb it by cleaning it.




yellow. this one was extending its polyps on day one.



this one has been growing like crazy this last week or so. I thought I was going to loose it with the rest of them when I got it.

Common anyway I know non of the scientific names for them.
