Nice to see and chat with some familiar faces. Thanks to the volunteers for manning the BAR booth. It's kind of like our home base.
Did u guys pick up anything at CFM? I went specifically for soft corals for my mangrove tank which is all daylights, so nothing that requires blues to fluoresce.
Met up with Legendary Corals for a pink lemonade stereonephthya.
Found this gorgonian tucked in the corner of Inner Circle's frag tank. Under blues it was dark and brown but the colors are really nice in white light. I was thinking the general gorgonian rule that white polyps = non-photosyntehic. Did some research at home and this looks like part of the menella genus, which meant also non-photosyntehic :/ Already fed it some frozen bbs and it gobbled it up so guess I have another maintenance task.
