Ok so here are the latest editions to the tank. I received my branching hammer and my acro today- the site said it was a granuloso green but looks like it has some purple on it although the stalks color is greenish so will see what it looks like once the polyps extend either way I'll be happy- is a nice sized piece that they sent me. The hammer hasnt opened up much yet either, will post new pics once theyre all adjusted to the tank, heres what they look like so far:

Thanks but I e mailed the company I think they possibly sent me a frogspawn- the tentacles ends are round instead of the hammer shape they usually have, I may be wrong but wanna make sure

Well now that its opened up a bit is evident to me that they sent me a frogspawn instead of a hammer. Will see what they do to remedy the situation and maybe after its settled will put the frog in the martketplace. I love the color on it but have limited real estate so wont be having multiples of pieces that will grow large.

Nice stuff James. Hope you took care of dipping everything first 
Wouldn't want to introduce anything unexpectedly into your pristine system.
Keep up the good work. Everything looks great.

Sure, just toss the hand that fed and taught you to the dismembering 'cute' little creature :anger2: . We'll see just how free I am with the future of those little tidbits of useful information you've been squandering away these past 5 months.
BTW James, could you please leave that mantis alone. I just want you to help me start training this tiny little octopus. Very beautiful blue colored rings on it. I think he's 'taking:lol2::lol2::anger2: a liking' to you. You should feel very special and honored.

I feel SUPER honored to have picked your brain but I aint touchin either of those creatures- if it dont have dorsal fins or get mounted on a rock with super glue I aint touchin it.... I dont bite the hand that feeds me BUT I dont remove mantis shrimp or octoupus' from it either lol

Actually if you can get me a neon chartruce or possibly mauve tank(preferably with orange silicone)would be great but I would like the canopy to be hot pink if you could I think the color combo would be FAAAAAABULOUS! Thanks.

Hey guys(and gals) wanted to put some updates on here. Went up to see House today and pick up a few things. Got a Neon Green Torch, a Lawnmower Blenny and an Emerald Crab. Took a FTS as well as a pic of the hammer coral that the other place sent me. After I contacted them and proved to them that they sent a frogspawn instead of a hammer were great, sent me a hammer free of charge-were a really stand up company- so got a frogspawn free out of the deal- good for me-bad I bet for the poor guy that packed up the wrong thing- am sure the boss isnt too happy with them. I will have some better pics at a later time, had to take these under actinics- didnt want to shock the torch so no halides tonight. I also threw in a pic as an update on the anemone. Hope you guys enjoy- and as always a big thank you to Russ and Jim for the great stuff!
