Good to see things are on the up & up Kien. Found the same thing with the Hanna meter, you don't have much time between the 2 tubes during the test. Great pic's also :).

You could take a photo of a turd and somehow expose some hidden beauty I swear. Great shots and really good to hear you're back in the realm of growth and colour. How much is the tester and 25 reagents?

Thanks guys :-) Can't say that I've ever photographed a turd before though.

Phosphate kit is $50. A pack of 25 reagents is $11. I hear they are coming out with kits for The Big 4 (Nitrate, Calcium, Alk, Mag). I will definitely be getting them!

Very nice as usual! Tell me about the flow pattern you have in the FOWLR?

thanks! the flow is identical to what I have going on in the mixed reef. One power head (6105) shoots down the back wall, one shoots down the front wall. The stream hits the opposite wall and bounces back in the middle, above and below the location of the powerheads. I have all powerheads on the controller which pulses them randomly from 75% power to 100% every 10 seconds. Some of the flow that bounces off the opposite wall gets mixed with the flow from the powerheads every once and a while and causes turbulence in various middle parts of the tank. There's also the odd water funnel generated.

What kind of equipment are you using to photograph your corals? They are fantastic shots!

Looks like a nice macro lens.... or perhaps a point and shoot with great macro setting!

I hope to rival those shots once my tank is complete!! LOL!

thanks :) Most macro photos were taken with the Canon 5D Mark II with 100mm macro lens. In water photos were taken with the Olympus Stylus Tough 6000 in macro mode.
