Love the blue ricordia.
Yeah, it looks like a fish muncher for sure! But all my fish when first put into the tank almost got sucked in by it, but since then they've leaned about the giant chop chop in the tank The flow is really broad - I have it on 100% reef crest, and the SPS love it. And everything else likes the flow too, even the fish.

I love the ricordea too - I have another one that's a purplish with green rim in the frag tank that I'd eventaully like to move into the DT - just have to juggle the ric mountain a bit. This one started off less power-blue, looking more dull. I passed up a big pink rim/purple with green mouth colony Saturday at BA - kinda regret it now so I'm going to go back and see if it's still there. Fingers crossed it is

Hey Canreef mods! I think its time a nano made TOTM and I vote for this one!
Haha, I don't think it's anywhere near TOTM quality yet - it's not even a year old. I hope one day to get growth and colours like some of the TOTMs featured around the web though

Yeah, it would be nice to see some more bulbs. I think it would be a worthwhile market seeing how popular a platform it's becoming, and the money people are spending. Hopefully the European makers start cluing into the nano market - then this size I think will really take off.

I'll try to borrow my folk's DSLR camera this week for sure - hopefully I can take some better shots for you guys
