Yes that is why I couldn't do a frag of it with your last order, I need it to grow out again. I'll see what I can do for next time.:wink:

Your corals are amazing! It wasn't until you posted the pic of yourself standing beside your tank that put the the magnificent perspective of the real life beauty of it all into focus. I'm certain that you've had to help a few people pick up their jaws off your floor after seeing your tank in person.

KennyKen 04-12-2008 09:10 AM

let me get some frags from that dirty softie tank.
just to start out

Hey thanks very much. That's a first, I've always been told that my tank looks better with me in the other room and for sure not in the same picture.:lol:

Look'n good Greg. I'm going to have to put an order in soon.

Good thing I don't have to speak and just type because my jaw is on the floor and I don't think it'll ever get back up.
Wow!! Just simply gorgeous! The explosion of colours is amazing!
Something to aspire too, for sure.
One day.....

JOEL 04-13-2008 01:54 AM

Very nice Greg. When my tank is ready to go I will have to go to Calgary and pick up some of your frags - and some advice since I will be a newbie with sps corals. I may even pm you with some questions if that's ok.

Pan 04-13-2008 03:08 AM

Oh My god oh my god oh my god....I saw snappys tanks today for the first time...Greg has outdone himself such a tank really gives you the feeling of a part of a reef in your home..simply astounding - all i could muster at first was ...oh my.... I also saw Danny Zubots tank and again another wow, he is one who most assuredly has an eye for detail and aquascaping...amazing amzing both of these tanks. I really can't describe just home impressed i was with them, and the people were so nice...greg and Dannys wife...and i am ashamed to say i forget her name. :(
First rate frags and people so nice even though i was sick/am sick it really made my day talking to these fine people :)

WOW it's looking good.

Funny how corals will change in different tanks.

niloc16 04-13-2008 07:32 AM

Thanks Joel, FYI I do ship:wink: Also if there is something you think I can help you with, ask away. I'm no expert but I'm glad to assist where I can.

Hi Greg

Your pictures are fantastic.

The majority of your pictures are from the top down. Could you post a picture of the camera box (c/w dimensions) that you are using and the general settings you use on your camera.

Thanks Tom. Top down IMO is often the best angle to shoot from. What I use is a clear acrylic box that I got from work that was built to display carbide grinding burrs.(long story) The dimensions are roughly 9 x 8 x 4.
Here is what it looks like.

This A. batunai has become one of my faves, quite subtle & delicate with a unique growth pattern.
