Okay, now the fun part. So I was bored yesterday and decided to try some top down shots. It occurred to me that my top is open and I had space in between the top of the open canopy and the light fixture to sneak in and look at the tank from the top down (without having to remove anything). It was quite a cool perspective! These are all taken with an Olympus underwater camera. I wasn't sure how these would turn out but I have to say I was shocked when I saw the pictures. I know there was a thread about this (viewing corals top down and how amazing they look) that Lobsterboy posted a little while back. Again, wow, they really do look amazing from the top down.

I PMed you asking about one of your corals too.

Oh yes, I like it, I like it a lot :-) Actually, the red sunrise and sunset isn't a big deal (to me). What's really cool is the white lightening LEDs!

Yes, love the ViewII! I can see it from the kitchen while making dinner or what have you. Although, I don't *really* need it since the profilux emails me vital stats to my iPhone very 3 hours

As mentioned, I'm really only dosing Alk and Calc. I suppose eventually I might dose Mag via the doser but I don't think I deplete enough to ?? Not sure yet, still playing around with it.

This is a blue polyp austera you also picked up from fooser :P

This mille is looking great! I am glad you picked it up!

Hmm.. That one looks like the one you picked up from me too!

Looks like you got yourself a ton of nice looking pieces added to your collection too. I think it's almost time for me to come to your place next time! So....when's the clipper coming out?:P
