Awesome looking tank, man. I love the structure, gives you lots of room for coral placement. And as always, fantastic photography!

Thanks Scott.. I re-arranged 2 rocks tonight to give myself a bit more stable setup for coral placements.

The tank is doing well so far.. I don't have any nuisance algae to deal with (...yet? ), the Foxface is settling in quickly and know who I am after only 48hrs.. "Hey, you bring me food again??". The clown doesn't seem to want to leave the back corner where the closed loop intake is, so he must enjoy the flow, there will just never be anything to host though.

Took a ton of shots tonight, as well as a few shots of the new Acro colony I brought home today.

The new colony today:

Paisley Maxima:


Frogspawn:


Crocea Clam:


Orange Skirted Zoas (ID??):


Army Green Zoas:


Orange/Green Tongas:

The newbie sure looks different in your tank. Those orange skirted zoas are actually lunar palys (methinks) surprised Kevin sold them.(was kinda wondering where they went).

You sold them to me!

Really liking the coloring of that Acro under my lights.. I still want to get some T5 supplementing though.

Whoohoo!! I think I figured out the problem with the pictures being less colorful when I upload them.

Compare this shot and with the 1 above.. WAY better color.




Oh, and this little addition....

It's the first night home for him. Doing good so far, hasn't been off trembling in any corners... stayed up at the front glass as soon as I put him in. Ate with the other 2.. Nipped at the mysis (Michika's food), and loves brine (even tho not high in nutrients).

Promising so far... got him at a VERY good price too.

Very nice! Good luck with him. Mine is a mysis fiend, but did not take to it right away (but ate brine from the get-go). So hopefully it will be about the same for you. Other things I feed mine are oysters, mussels, Manila clams, etc. - loves it.

What was the deal with the pictures losing colour though? I'm very curious what was up with that?

Just finished making a top down viewing box for my camera. My "Yellow" Acro isn't so yellow from top down..

Only shot I've tried so far, but I am already addicted to top down shots.

EDIT: Damn, I loose alot of color using photobucket!!!
