lastlight's 34g solana

It's with great shame that I post these next pictures. I just can't take even a DECENT photo anymore. Maybe I gotta turn the lights on in the room too but I haven't been able to shoot corals worth a dang. Washed out blurry...you've been warned! It's too bad because the tank is looking killer right now in person. Colors are all really nice and bright to the eye. Not sure if it's things becoming more stable, my freshly started daily dosing or the NP pellets (I don't think these have been tumbling long enough to work?)

Oh and I have three corals that all look super similar. One is a superman digi and the other 2 were on the same mount and called orange digi. The superman has nice purple base (lost in the photo of course) and so does one of the 'orange digis' off the other plug. So I'm confused there...the polyps all glow a super bright pink in the tank.

Superman (base is quite purple but photo shows nothing):


Orange digis? First looks so close to the superman (maybe not in my photos)





And the rest:

And here's an equally lame video taken with a crappy point and shoot:

I can't zoom in or out with the thing because it won't re-focus when you do!

What I *DO* like about the video is that it shows the colours a bit truer (brighter) to real life but the issue is nothing is large enough or close enough for you to see it lol!

Loved the video. I really like the look of your tank!!!

Yeah I'm not sure you can really complain about those photos. Better than anything I could do with a camera!

I like how the frags mess with your sense of scale and perspective. That one pic from the side with the frag slope gives the tank a larger look to it.

Very nice.

Thanks guys. It's early to be saying this but I'm now just going to sit back and watch her grow. I'd maybe add one or two fish if I came across the right ones...and maybe a few LPS later on...oh and a gorg or two and...

I'm done for SPS.

Well ok I would like a puprle monti cap and...

DAMMIT!

But seriously...I SWEAR keeping your hands/arms COMPLETELY out of the tank is so key. I have made an effort to keep them out 100% since mounting Des' stuff and I really do think half the recent improvements are a result of that.

And Doug I think her wee box is spoken for. Sorry bra.

[Delphinus]

Tee hee. You said "bra".

Oh you can see the ghetto looking tie-wrapped-to-tunze MJ1200 in there as well. I said screw form I want function. The corals LOVE the extra flow. I had two strapped up there but it was too much too soon.

Teehee!
