Thanks for posting Charlie I was starting to wounder if anyone was going to post.What is the acro in the last pic looks like it is a millie but not sure?
 
Very nice Charlie, yeh I saw a pic in the 450 thread,I just thought he had fragged hiw so small that you were giving him a piece from your tank. I lost that nice piece I got from him last year when the heater stuck, but have a smaller frag of the same piece from Dr. Deano, it is doing fine, just not near as big. I think your is darker blue. Dean and I are going to go down to that place and look around, heard they really have nice stuff, expensive but worth it.
 
I guess I will post some of mine.

this one pic was taken in Jan w/20k

You can see the changes from day to night, but I'm not sure which one I like the best before or the after.
 
Josh that last one looks like a prize to me.You guys up north must have alot of blue acros.Here is one of the few blue acros I have.I am not sure what it is called but it is nice.

So my guess is you don't need chillers there. It snowed here in 2004 for christmas and I live on the beach that was the first time my 12yr old son had ever seen snow.

the place you really want to go to is upscales in portland, they have awesome corals of similar rarity and much better prices, plus the display tanks that travis has there kick some major ass.
still, soutas does have some nice stuff and definately merrits a visit when down there, just keep your hand on your wallet.
 
SPS is my favorite kind of corals. Here are some of mine
