 My Cacti (pics)

Ok, I've finally managed to sort out pics of my cacti, some of the photos are a bit old, only about a month though. I'll add some more once I work out which ones I've missed.
A Trichocereus Chilensis
and another
Some Myrtillocactus & San Pedro cuttings
Two Opuntias
 
Some Lophophoras grafted onto Eriocereus Jusbertii
Possibly a Mammillaria Longiflora but I'm not sure
 
These are also a cutting from the same original cactus which unfortunately got damaged moving and rotted.
 
3 larger Lophophoras
 
and 3 smaller ones 
A Trichocereus Pachanoi where a graft didn't take.
And a Myrtillocactus Geometrizian that I've since cut the pups from
Edit - Actually I find I haven't cut this one up, here it is now 
A Lemaireocereus Dumortieri
 
Unknown
 
These lophos were very sunburned and discoloured but have exploded with new growth.
 
Grafted lophos
 
These Lophophora Williamsi were all in the same pot, unfortunately another clay pot fell onto it and broke it. It also broke my oldest Lophophora (that I've owned it for) in the bottom picture.
 
 
They're repotted now and seem to be recovering well.
Right, thats it for now. I'll post some more tomorrow.

Only a few pics now as I've reached the upload limit for a while.
Here's 4 Lophophra Diffusa of various ages.
and 5 Lophophora Williamsii  .
This Trichocereus Peruvianus has grown really well
and this Pachanoi is growing a bit slower 
I'm not sure what this one is but it's a bit of a rescue. Mould has eaten up the top of the cactus  
A Peruvianus cristate, or monstrose, only a Cereus though
This is a month old photo of my Neoporteria Paucicostata v. Paposa It's flowering now and I'll post pics when I can upload.
Yet more cuttings

Right I'll add some of the other photo's I'd taken.
The Neoporteria is flowering right now  
and here's a sun darkened Aloe  
and yet more Lophophoras  and an Agave
This is a relatively recently acquired Trichocereus Pachanoi  and a Bridgesii I've had for 3 years 
And this one is how well my repotted Lophophoras have been doing compared to right after they were hit by another cactus & repotted.
Month or so ago Now 
Also showing good growth are this Lopho and T. Pachanoi  .

some of your pachnoi's(the ones from seed i asume from appearence) look more like macrogonus. either way they are beautiful.

Not sure which ones you mean but only one of my Trics is seed grown (apart from seedlings) & I haven't posted a pic yet. All the others are cuttings or purchased. Of course its possible some were mis-identified when I got them, which ones do you reckon look like macrogonus?

I've updated the earlier post now and here's some small unidentified cacti
A Strombocactus Disciformis
This is a cutting of a San Pedro which has had something eat its growing
tip, just as it was getting ready to begin growing. Hopefully it'll
recover.
 .
Two Melocactus'
A Euphorbia Obesa, also heavily sunburned.

i was refering to the pachnoi that you said was growing slower. from the spination it appears that whoever had it before you started it from seed rather then clone. beaytiful by the way.

Oh right, I think it probably was grown from seed, it's still only about 9" high though even though I've had it almost as long as the Peruvianus above it which is about 15". As you say though it is a lovely cactus.

How do people prevent their aloe plants from drooping? Every time I go into this nursery I like they have about 20 aloe that all (regardless of size) grow with their leaves upwards.. I know aloe likes to absorb a lot of water like other cacti, but I've had mine from the same store for about 4 days and it's already done lots of drooping? Is it not getting enough light, or too much water? The nursery grows them inside a big greenhouse that is the store, and the woman working told me they hardly ever water them, but the room is pretty humid as it is, so what gives?!

Not sure, I suspect it might be humidity but I can't offer anything from personal experience

Hard to believe but I'm still noticing cacti I've missed posting here
A little Agave
 
and a large one
A Mammillaria Matude
 
Another unknown, though I think it may be a Parodia 
This Haworthia is a bit sunburned, usually it's green

Two Trichocereus Pachanoi that I thought I'd already posted 
 
I forget the name of this one, something like Bo...cactus Madisonorium 
My one T. Peruvianus grown from seed (by me)  
Another unknown species  
and a particularly odd looking cactus, Pachyphytum Oviferum 
Astrophytum something 
and just as an update one of my Lophophoras has just put out some flowers
