Some things im working on right now

--Going to try and make a bunch of frag plugs tonight, like this http://www.coszam.net/plugs2.htm

Really like that green digi. Some good colors in your photos.

How does that 4-stripe behave? What's in the tank with him?

the 4 stripe is a pretty old fish, i've had him for three years and before me the guy had him for 5 years i think. he is pretty territorial but since the other 3 fish are also damsel types, they don't take his sh*t.
He has probably nipped me about 40 times. some times he sneaks up while im moving a coral Never hard enough to break the skin.

the domino is now the dominant fish. i added him about 18 months ago and he quickly outgrew the 4 stripe.
He was about the size of a quarter, now about 3 inches long. this guy has never nipped me

also there is a yellow-tail blue damsel and an Ocellaris clown, who are pretty timid.



Tried really hard to get the colors true to life, with white balance and f-stop and iso. the camera is a canon rebel xsi. Hopefully we can get a macro lens soon.
