Glad to hear you've escaped your sps curse Tony! Looking forward to the pics... even cat barf will do =)

Picktchoors!!!

There is a weird dampening effect over some of the corals that completely prevent a picture being in focus of them, no matter what. The tort in particular, even the photos are kind of hard to look at. Guess I need to keep experimenting to find the ideal settings. But here are some non-throwaways from tonights efforts..

Cleaner shrimp plus survivors of caulerpa damaged Stylo from my 40g. Effecting a recovery (I can see growth) and has gone from brown to .. um .. moar pink. Good think I have a thing for pink stylos!!

Thanks for looking :)

Great photos Tony! Go SPS go!! :biggrin:

those shots are more than acceptable mang.......in fact they are bordering on kick-ass:biggrin:

Looks great Tony :thumb: I also love lavender tangs, very pretty imo.

I am lik'in everything you have there Tony! Wow your fish are beautiful!

Those photos look great man and so do your colors! Game on!

By Gosh Tony, I think you've got it! SPS thriving in your tank. The curse is broken!

Colours look great!

I have a bit of a theroy about sps keeping. From my expirence when I had a fair amount of LPS and some softies any sps (even birdsnest) would RTN within hours. I had always thought it was because maybe my nitrates were to high or something. However now that I don't have many lps or softies in my tank I am finding that I can keep sps and my nitrates haven't changed so......:noidea: maybe less lps & softies = sps alive?

I have mostly been adding Acans and other softies and the sticks keep looking better lol. I think it's a giant game of chance and you take as many pictures as you can while you're winning. Tony you're winning so snap snap!
