Gulf of Mexico corals available
Richard, thank you for the C.A.R.E. package! The beautiful hard corals you sent had their polyps out in a couple of hours. I will post pictures of the different corals as soon as I get them off the camera.
By the way, I got popped on the finger by a pistol shrimp while unpacking the corals. It stung for an hour afterward. I've been hit by a wennerae and ounce for ounce the pistols are much nastier.

Yep!
Attitude is right! Do you need new gloves? Got some in, let me know...
Now for the pictures  Here are 2 coral colonies on 1 rock. Note the coralline growth...  A different rock, with same type of colony (Tube coral? Richard please identify)  This flat rock had some macroalgae:  Round rock with 2 types of hard coral and lots of caulerpa:  Another colony:  An EXCELLENT hard coral colony! I almost crapped myself when I saw this one  This is the rock where the pistol shrimp popped me.
