Im really impressed with the macro feature on my otherwise unimpressive point and shoot.

The last few pics from the last "shoot".

You should try some top-down shots of your clams

Man, there are some serious clam junkies here. I will get in the tank and snap a few more TD shots of the clams when the novelty of my new pumps wears of and I stop playing with them. Kevin ordered a millwaukee LUX light meter for the shop, so there is another toy I want to fiddle around with. It will be neat to see what the actual par readings are in the different areas in the tank. I still havnt got the ATO set up yet...to be honest the instructions confuse me. The translation between German and English is not so good. I read all the instructions for the nanostreams, controller and ATO at the same time and by the time I was done my brain hurt. I will re-read the ATO instructions and maybe they will be a little clearer.

Oh... I almost forgot.... ROSIE!!!! (bta) has returned from the dead Its been over a month since I thought she got chopped up by a powerhead. I removed as much of her as I could find but I guess I missed a spot. The increase in flow must have flushed her from where she was recovering. She looks very pale and isnt in a very good spot as far as light goes. I can however get to her to spot feed her. I have my fingers crossed that she will find a decent spot to settle down. Only thing now is, my tank( that I thought would never have one nem) now has two nems. Fortunately they are on opposite sides of the tank from each other atm and they are both BTAs, so if they do find each other they shouldnt fight....right? I may have said this before....nems is evil.

Glad to hear the RBTA is still kicking around.

Ultimately, two BTA's in a tank shouldn't be a problem. IME anyhow..

What model is your P&S underwater camera again?

I second the call for more top down clam shots

No point really....just a general observation Didnt really plan to have two BTAs in the tank tho. I had my reservations about one
