Default A few new top downs

Just playing around, took a few shots top down with the flash.

Yellow Millepora, just glows



A fairly new addition and another favorite, Acropora papillare





The one I call "purple rain" not sure why just sounds cool I guess, Acropora nobilis



This is a red Acropora abrotanoides, it lost it's color shortly after addition but I'm working on getting it back, you can see the red coming though the new growth, just need my new reactor and we should see some good results.





Ahh, my purple tort, gotta love it, Acropora tortuosa



Not an enhanced picture, it's seriosuly that pink, Stylopora



Not the best color but a great growth pattern, quite unusual, forget the name

Sorry not done yet




Has it's better days, looks great after Zeospur dosage, Acropora formosa



Another favorite, porites. It even has a few X-mas worms growing out of it.


A few extras just for kicks

Man I love pinks Stylopora's but that one is super intense! Wow. Anytime I've tried Stylopora I found it to be a very slow grower. How is this one for you?

Yes I find the same, all my stylos grow much slower than anything else.

Looks sweet. I like the yellow Milli. Everything is very vibrant. Are you running any Bactiria methods like ZeoVit?

Nope, no enhancements. All the above pictures where taking with the aquarium lights off, the camera flash was the only light used. The pictures were transfered directly from the camera to Photobucket and posted here

I'm going to try and get a picture of my new lionfish tonight with the same method.
