Cool. So no dosing pump(s) or anything? I'm currently dosing Turbo Calcium and dKH Superbuffer. Seems to be working fine....and really IS cheap!

Great photos, btw. Love the last one, especially!

Wow those fish photos are fantastic!!

What camera are you using?

[Delphinus]

Wow, I like how they all cooperate when it's time to pose for the camera! Does the camera have a little mysis on a stick thing to attract their attention?

Great shots btw!

Excellent photos Darryl.

I used a Nikon D70 with a 50mm fixed lense.

Tony - you're close, I used krill with Berkley fish scent -jk I took over 150 images and selected my faves. The trick is to switch the AF from Single to Continuous (might not be available on all Point and Shoots) move with the fish and snap away.

I'm kinda late on my journal but here's an 11 month growth sequence. April 29 2006 shot is lit with 10K XM and PC Actinic, my recent May 29 2007 shot is lit with a Giesmann 13K and Super blue T5. I put back the powerheads back on..it's as clean as I can get em

Wow, tunze of growth (sorry...bad pun, but I honestly couldn't resist; reef humour is the WORST).

But seriously, lookin' good
