Nice thanks for sharing man!!

 

[n8ball2013]

wow nice camera work. what kind of lighting did you take those under.

The last one (Yasha Gobies) was tank lighting from the opposite side of the room (no flash, 300mm lens).

The rest were a combo of tank lighting and my sb-400 flash, hand held, next to my lens and the tank glass. My focal distance is <5cm so I have to hold the flash until I make a bracket to put it where I want it.

You have a nice collection of Zoas. How about posting a FTS? The photos are great. I hardly realize the complex patterns and color combos in the corals until you see nice macros like yours.

I would post a shot but there isn't much to see to be honest. All the zoas are sitting on the tank bottom right now unmounted and the SPS I have are sitting on the sand. The tank has just recovered after a chiller mishap this summer. :lol: So while I muster up the energy to get glueing, I take macros.

Thanks for the compliment.

I'll see what other shots I can put up that I took tonight.

Beautiful tank!

 

[rick12]

what are the names of the orange zoas with the green trim in the very first pics?

 

[DJ88©]

Orange zoas with green trim....

No idea to be honest. I don't know or worry about "names" for corals I keep. Just that they do well in my tank.

and tyvm.

 

[rick12]

lol orange with green trim....not much a designer name...
i have some in my tank and everyone asks the name.
