Coral in the Capitol

My automatic feeder has been WAYYYY overfeeding my tank... today going to be a long day of cleanup....

Here’s what my slimmer pulled since Saturday:

Some recent eye candy additions from WWC, Supreme Reefs (local to me) and Pacific East Aquaculture(also local) which I got to go view in person, which was pretty awesome. I also picked up a golden blenny.

Unfortunately, it seems a few of the guys I picked up from WWC did not handle shipping well, but I have no doubt they will be awesome like always.

We must be pretty near each other. PEA is 20 minutes from me. I can’t wait to get in there and go wild. I’m holding off on corals until I move in the next few months.

It’s just shy of 2 hours for me.. I’m located in DC. Their store is awesome, and the frags are very reasonably priced, with pretty much all of them at $25 a piece, including some good size acros (the very encrusted ones on my rack picture) and those orange acans I picked up.
 
Welcome back to the hobby. If you're interested, theres going to be a frag swap on Jan 19th at Thatpetplace in Lancaster, PA, which maybe is about 2.5hrs from you. Many people from our area travel up for the goodies.

Here I was lurking through threads trying to plan my first tank and find some locals.
I am near Annapolis Md.
Thanks for the name of two coral shops to write down. I thought I was going to only have house of tropics.

Check out www.wamas.org its our local club and has an awesome LFS map. I’ve been to most, Supreme reefs has the best coral by far, PEA is also awesome but it’s a bit far. Tropical lagoon in silver spring usually has a great fish/dry goods selection.
 
Ordered a ClariSea SK-3000 in an effort to reduce maintenance as much as possible on my tank.

I’m tired of leaving for a weekend away and coming home to a disaster of a tank, and my traveling will only progress as the year moves on.

Next on the list is the Reef Octopus Regal 200INT
 
Got my new macro lens in, still getting the hang of it, but its been great!

An unknown ORA acro.. (please help!)
