Love the frogfish. What are you feeding him?

I assume this is a standalone tank, ie., not inline with your zeo tank (based on the caulerpa)?

I feed the frogfish PE mysis and full krill, eats right of forceps. The tank is not standalone, it's plumbed in with the other tank. I actually stopped the zeo treatment about 6 months ago, it served its purpose and I find I get better results now without the full system. I still use lots of zeo additives though.

Yes it is a lionfish, going head to head with the seahorse :biggrin:

Der_Iron_Chef 07-08-2008 04:58 PM

Amazing. Those seahorses are beautiful! What do you have in that tank?...or are they all in the same tank?

sphelps 07-08-2008 05:09 PM

In that tank:

2 seahorses
Fu-Man-Chu Lionfish
Frogfish
White Ribbon Eel
Engineer Goby

Mostly LPS and soft corals, 2 clams.

sorry guys I am a newbie,hehe, I am wondering what is a "Zeo tank" and steve how big is your tank and what lighting are you using, cuz I am planning to use my biocube(plumbed into my main tank) to do whatever youre doing.

Zeo tank means the tank uses the Zeovit method which is a type of nutrient exportation system to say the least. I'm not using this method anymore.

The lower tank uses 4 24" T5 bulbs for lighting. 3 Coral lights, and 1 Fiji Purple.

wow man i gotta admit that you're a excellent Photographer and a reef keeper.
ohh one more question how big is your lower tank again?

spoot 07-27-2008 07:07 AM

Very nice pictures. Which lens were you using? I checked the exif and saw 150mm f2.8. Don't remember if there was a nikkor prime with those specs.

It's the Sigma Macro 150

The highest nikor macro is 105 and I really liked that lens for it's VR but found the 105 wasn't quite enough for me.

Thanks reefy! Lower tank is 30" x 24" x 16" (LxWxH) about 50 gallons I believe.

I was thinking it was the sigma. They have an older nikkor 200mm micro actually, but the cost is quite high.

I can go 1:1. So the size of the image on the sensor can be as big as the size of the object itself.
