I didn't get the blue hornets, but I will probably do another trip down in a few weeks, so I'll probably pick them up then...

Blue Hornets are zoas being sold by a store down there.... I believe they are the african blue steel zoas that were on the market earlier in the year.

I'm not sure what would quantify them as real or not, but they look exactly like the African blue steel zoas that were so highly sought after 3-4 months ago. Also, the rock they were encrusted on are exactly the same as well, very dense, not like other substrate... Just my 2 cents.. Awesome find nonetheless

yup they were highly sought after before but after too many stories of melting...its like no one wants to take the risk
the link that cali_reef showed is the african blue steels or african blue hornets
but for $10 thats an awesome deal
i remember before a colony of african blue hornets cost a fortune...

SPS Dominated 40B - Tank Pics
These pics were taken about 6 months ago.... The tank layout and inhabitants are still the same.. The only change is all the LPS in the tank were moved into the now LPS Dominated 40B....

Coral ID
Could this be a blasto, merletti type? I have been looking for cool stuff and ran across a site that had several other colors than yours. They where not close ups but it looked similar.. Thought I would throw it out there to see if you had considered it. Very excellent tank!!!! Thanks for your time.

Of all the inhabitants in my tank I receive the most questions regarding the one below.... I purchased it over a year ago and the person who I got it from received it as an unknown coral from Australia. I've been trying to ID it for a while now, but to avail....
Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks for the compliments Vince...
I don't believe it's a blasto. I've got a few blastos in my tank and the growth and polyps look nothing like this one. I think it's a Symphyllia Wilsoni... A few months back a bunch of fellow reefers helped me to ID this coral.
