Lol I thought it was reef safe with caution? At any rate there is no wheelchair access so he's hooped :P

blah blah blah. so the Mrs and I are moving so the tank is getting torn down and moved as well, so here is one last (awful) shot of the tank. I hope that once I set it back up again, I can get something along these lines with the aquascape again. anyone want to teach me how to use my DSLR? I can get ok close ups with the stock lens, but everything else is just awful.
sighhh.. here you go dont tease me for my terrible picture skills

p.s. the red monti is still in there, you just cant see it :P

Ok so the tank is all done! ato hooked in, 2 new powerheads, and an aquadoser (the white bottle with the drip line) all hooked in!
Tried to match the rock work as close as I could with a few small changes, and i must say, I was looking at the tank today, and I feel like I can keep my hands out of it now :) so this is good!
3 casualties; 2 sps, and my cherub were lost along the move :( but it happens so no biggie!
here are some cell phone pics for now since the camera is packed :P

Yup, nice work on the scape

Have you tried taking a pic with all the lights on, but drop the white balance a bit ?
Helps with my point and shoot, but don't know what your new one will do
And for the grainy stuff, you may need a tripod if it's camera shake ( too much Whiskey ) :razz:

Nano 08-17-2012 03:50 AM

Lol no whiskies today :P yeah the light are on 55% its much brighter then the pictures but I had to adjust the exposure on my pc so everything wasn't so white I'll get the hang of it one day.

Nano 09-05-2012 04:21 AM

I have a question! :P
Rather then start a new thread I'll just ask here. My green monti is growing out the last few months, but in the last few weeks it hasnt grown out but its gotten thick, about 1/4-12"+ in some spots why is this and is it good? It looks like its trying to 'branch' out a new plate is forming in a spiral kind of way so just thought id ask.

claymax 12-11-2012 05:15 PM

long time reader first time poster. any updates on this? a FTS maybe?

Nano 12-11-2012 05:24 PM

Umm.. not much has happened in the ways of growth. I am battling GHA right now, but I can post a fts later on once I'm done work.

Be warned. The tank is in a real state right now.. :razz:
