Looks great Sarah!!
One question for you.. What is the pinkish/red coral behind these green zoas? Montipora Digitata maybe?

THANKS everyone...I will try to update it as I go along... I'm glad that I finally started this.....

the softies are very cool to watch...but up for trades as I'd really like to start putting in more corals that will be there long term...I have enough softie tanks!

The red/pink one behind the zoos is a Montipora Digitata "freebie" from Marie...no pics of it directly yet...it's not where I want it to be...just "resting" there so I can afix it once I don't bleach it or kill it! There are actually several freebies from Marie in the tank.....just waiting to be afixed once I don't kill them;several montipora digitata frags of green, red and a previous one from her that is brown with purple tips...don't know if it will make it as it was in one of the other tanks....a yellow cap frag, and a small birdsnest frag.... I have purchased a nice Bali Green Slimer colony that is waiting for me in Vancouver and I have a Leng Sy frag that will be fragged when I actually get to Vancouver.......I do wish I lived there sometimes!

I'll post a picture of the room it's in and the sump tonight when I get home...that's if I can take a decent enough picture

Sarah,
I'll need a frag of that last one. I grabbed a few things from Campbell River Pet Centre lately too. They've got some really nice corals in lately.
Shaun.

I have a feeling that pink will be quite bright under good light

Very nice Sarah! I like the full room shots, it gives a bit of perspective on things. I just started a thread to see if anyone wants to share.

For the gorgonian, I like to keep mine in high flow (right near the Tunze nanostream that is pointed at the glass & so the flow is more disrupted). I squirt a mix of spirulina powder (health food store), freeze dried cyclopeeze, Reefroids, and Coral Frenzy. I squirt in at least twice a day, with a small squirt first to get them to open up if they are closed.
