  1. New Additions Video: Green-Tip Hammer & Ocellaris Clownfish

    This is my first aquarium video. Nothing special except two of my new additions:

The hammer coral I picked up from a local club member. I was expecting a small head of coral, but he handed me a huge deli container with a 4-inch tall frag.
