More Pics. Still trying to figure out exposure for the LEDs. I think the narrow band of wavelengths they produce makes it difficult.

Here's some of the various zoas. The fluorescence with the royal blue LEDs is amazing. The colours really pop in the tank. It's hard to capture in camera:











A tiny Kenya Tree frag:



A tiny toadstool frag:



A small trumpet coral frag:



"Zebra" the sharknose goby:



Checking out the zoas:

Great pics! The florescence from the LEDs is amazing. What camera are you using?

Thanks guys. Camera is a Canon 30D with a Sigma 70mm macro lens.

I'm going out of town for 5 days so hopefully all will be well. I have the ATO and a very experienced tank sitter coming by once a day to feed and check things so it should be good.

October Update Time. Not a ton of changes. Added three new friends for the sharknose goby:



Here's another one hanging out with the ricordea:



Also put my flamethrower mushroom in here:



And here's a nice shot of some hungry trumpets just before lights out:



And the current FTS:
