Awesome pictures! How do you adjust the white balance? looks great
the dendros prefer being on the bottom of the tank more?

My camera has a WB setting for 7K (shade) and I generally shoot without any room lighting.
I try to give some shade to the dendros from other corals but they are still fairly high on the tank.

Great looking FTS Noy!

I see you are running one of the Sicce voyageur pumps for circulation. How do you like it? Is it comparable to a tunze of simlar size or noiser with less flow? I was thinking about picking up a few of them to add some addtional flow where the vortechs can't get to in my system but I haven't heard much in terms of reviews.

Good eye! its a voyager 3 (1200gph), whisper quiet never had any issues but a bit on the pricey side. A nice feature is that you can control(limit) the flow through a rotating limiting plate on the outflow. Its a bit awkward in orienting the flow beyond the hinged arms - you have to rotate the whole pump.

Actuallly, when i took that FTS i just took down all my Maxi-jets. I got a deal on some Koralia's so will out outfiting with those otherwise I probably have stayed with the Sicce.

My latest ... Maxima Clam, can't believe how much i paid for this... can't believe i'm thinking of getting another one...

Elegance Coral. I thought i lost this guy to disease but its making a major comeback - the entire colony shrunk into the rock housing for over 2 months. You can see pretty major tissue loss at the bottom.

Rock Flower Anemone. had him for a while - he climbed into my fragbox and just stayed there. hard to photograph. Shame, because under actinic lighting its very colourful.

Closeup shot of my Montipora Confusa colony - looks like a martian landscape.

Montipora Rainbow. I put this guy beside a mushroom coral for 1/2 day - the entire left side turned dark brown. Thought i lost it - but has recovered in about a week.

Montipora Pokerstar. My euphyllia coral reached out and stung it - you can see the tissue loss at the top. It was a lot worse but its making a comeback - we'll see if i can save it. Its a encrusting variant so i'm trying to get it to encrust my rockwork

Montipora Pokerstar. Also another victim of euphyllia coral stinging - plus it go knocked over and lost for 2 weeks. Let see if i can save it.

Euphyillia. This guy has killed more corals than me. It killed a beautiful torch just recently. Its now stuck on the glass at the corner of the tank. Just can't bring myself to get rid of it ... got it as a 1 head frag originally.
