Very very nice! I particuarly like the first two pics. What type of camera do you us and what are the settings (if I may ask).

As a little side note, I noticed a few aptasia's in some of the shots. You will want to get rid of them before they commence to spreading.

To late. I pull them out when i can until i can get some stuff to nuke them with. Joe's Juice, any other suggestions? Truthfully apart from the rapid spreading of some they really arn't bothering me to much. I take rocks out and pull them off but other then that no real troubles.

Most of these were just taken in Auto mode because i am to lazy to mess with manual, and sharpened in Irfanview. Canon 300D (Digital Rebel) stock lens though. Sometimes i'll use my Macro adapter lens.

Thanks all.

Fast becoming one of my favorites (of course before it starts taking over the tank). You can see my other 2 frags of GSP above it on the rock in the second pic. Very very light hue of green, more of a mint color star polyp. Looks pretty good if it'd just grow some more.

I've used Blue Vet Aptasia Control to remove aptasia. It has worked well for me. They didn't have any Joe's Juice at the LFS, but this seems to work just fine. I only have one or two pop up occasionally in my frag tank. I had peppermint shrimp in my main tank at the beginning, and I've just never seen any in there.

GSP does indeed go wild. I have the braierium (gorgonian) type, and it grows just as fast.

Awesome pics Cichlid-Man. I hope to get a couple more softie frags in my tank when I get back from vacation in a couple weeks to join my flame zoa. It was pretty small when I bought it and it has grown a little in the month I've had it but I would like to find a couple others. Maybe a spiderman, a sapphire, or a jack rabbit. I saw a picture of a Darth Maul that looked pretty wicked too.

As far as the aiptasia goes, I had some growing on my LR and I put some Joes Juice on it and it worked great. I put it on the larger ones and my pep. shrimp took care of the smaller ones. So far nothing has come back yet.
