Acronics sps Peninsula

I had a hard time choosing between the powder blue and an achilles... In the end Amanda made the decision for me. Im happy with the powder blue. He is a big boy (or she)

Nice pic Acronic. You could make an avitar out of that one. Lol.:)

Powder Blue and Achilles are my favorites too. Want them both but have not heard good things about trying to keep both in the same tank.

You are a lucky guy!
 
Lol it would make a nice avitar ;) too bad its got nothing on the red velvet wrasse :P

I am a lucky guy but something tells me that Amanda did it for the extra foot rubs... Looks like "baby brain" has clouded her judgment... Win
 
Goings ons Going on round here. The golden buddha is making a full recovery, has encrusted and is starting to sprout :)

Pics are 6 days apart

Here is another look at one of my mari colonys. I am coming to like this piece more now and I hope that its polyps take on a more striking color rather than doo doo brown.

Not bad for no tripod :)

Thanks, ill keep adding pics of this guy as it grows. Ive been watching it closely for two weeks now waiting for it to sprout then bam! Shoots up like crazy! I think it is due to the GHL doser being back in operation. Nice and steady levels
 
got a peek at a terminal polyp on the Palmers milli and was blown away by the Y split in the polyps! Never seen that before. I guess this is normal since I see one on the sunset milli also.

this shot is very hard to get due to glass distortion.

This SPS is gonna be a hit with the lady SPSs' :lol2:
Great camera work dude :thumpbsup:
It's a pleasure to see when the right camera equipment is in the right hands.
 
Thank you for tagging along Ed. Glad to have more followers.

I got a photo set to post tonight as long as everything doesn't get in my way like it has today. still gotta process the pics though, may take awhile. Plus I was trapped in the lounge all day so that slowed me down lol.
 
prepare to be photo bombed! Last week my skimmer overflowed with a full cup so I have lost a bit of color here and there but also gained color on some corals. Ill start with my best shots of the set and then post the rest. Im still messing with the WB but I dont think Ill be happy untill I start shooting RAW and adjusting in post. For now still just my hack style PP. :) enjoy.

My poor poor karls candlelight.. NOT happy, might not make it. It still has some green in the base polyps but hmmm, unsure of its fate.

have you ever seen a BLACK stommatella snail? crazy

I cant get a good shot of my new yellow belly regal tang... I have had him for about 9 days now and he had a severe case of pinched stomach and a bit of ich. He is doing much better and eating lots. Ken was feeding him bannana to help the pinched stomach and it worked very well.

here is a better view of how bad his stomach was. This is now and he was much worse.

One more straggler left. I lost alot of the purple in the tips of the bonsai... I think I may just leave it where it is though and live with it.
