I've just started getting some semi fancy LPS (trachys, wellso, acon, fungi plates, etc) for the bottom of my tank. They look nice, but will need a lot more to be really noticed. This could be an expensive undertaking for me... Need to sell more SPS frags so I can afford the LPS...lol.

I can see why you and Albert are going for the nanos,... lot less bottom to cover.

Like Albert said... we do it for the swag?

Your totally right Walter! there is a lot less space to cover and its more affordable for sure. There's no way I could insta-reef a big tank.
I am now running the Radion at 30%, after playing with it and changing the spectrums things are looking better then ever! Kindof digging the Radions now

Here's one of my favorite rock flower nems right now. Hopefully he will pop out some nice offsprings.

Orange/gold frills with a bluish/redish center.

Haha, it's not just swag for you and Albert, it's a plan.... But hey, all the more power to you guys. The tanks are really cute, and those are indeed very nice looking corals.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

Don't associate me with that Albert guy... He's a money sucking machine
He takes my hard earned pennies whenever he shows me new eye candy.

I bought this tank off another member who intended on doing a similar build, I'm just carrying out his dreams. Yes I agree walter they are really cute! I'll definitely have to come by again and pay your tanks a visit soon. Perhaps you can teach me how to use that waterproof camera we have?

Yup, he's taken a bunch of my money, too... Him, and that Rich, and oh yeah, Chris(TD), too .

For sure, come by anytime. There are a few tricks to do with setting your manual WB, in case you haven't done that. And can always have a Sunset Monti frag available for you...

Thanks Walter, I'll swing by sometime. I tried to play with the camera today and I still can't get any good shots
