Thanks Brian.
Why thanks gabs. You know there are some tanks for sale on RF.

i know dood but my tank doesn't allow me to keep a tang and to have it just for a few months wouldn't be fair for mua

That's how it was for me before the upgrade.

The BTA pic looks a bit on the blurry side. But all the others are GREAT. With the advice they are getting better and better.

Keep it up!!!

edwing206 remember one thing...when shooting with long shutter speeds, like with the BTA 1/20 with the water movement you will get blurry pictures bump up your shutter speed to 1/60 and try again

 

[edwing206]

Thanks for the comments and advice guys.
I keep forgetting to turn off the flow. I'll try to remember next time. I'll try 1/60 when I get the chance.

that clam is beautiful.

 

[edwing206]

Some new ones. Still messing around with the settings. I kinda messed around in a editing program. Only like sharpening and stuff.

I'm running 500 watts of MH on my 60 so it's kinda a lot of light. I tested different settings to see what came out best. I'll keep seeing what comes out best.

Based on the input i've received so far 500w of high kelvin light actually isn't all that much for photography purposes... maybe your exposure was just set too high?

Just my 2 cents

 

[edwing206]

I think it was set too high. I kinda have the settings figured out sorta.

 

[edwing206]

A couple more.

Thanks for looking.

do you have the male to the fairy wrasse in pic #2?

 

[edwing206]

No I don't, I wish I did. Do you know where to get one? Don't even know what kind they are. Are they debi wrasse or something?

 

[senatormoe31]

fasten those frags down.
a wise poet once said;
Falling frags fair far from fantastic.
rock on! AND
say BYE< BYE to your clam and inverts with that "clown trigger". It's not a matter of whetther he'll eat it all. it's a matter of when??!!!.
Holly hopin hollies man.
OUCH!!
nobody gunna chime in on this?

 

[senatormoe31]

that clam will do better in a crotch in the rock work, or with something flat and solid under it.
Not really found floating on the sand in nature.
just some suggestions.

 

[edwing206]

Not to worry senatormoe, I traded to clown trigger for some sps and the clam is on the tank bottom.
I got another one of the same red fairy wrasses. I'm hoping one will turn into a male.

Your gonna love that tripod, keep practicing and you will find the right combination what will be desirable to your eyes.very nice clarity and color. as stated before anything that moves is tough with longer exposuresbut you will find that out if you havent already . Keep up the good work and cant wait to see more.

 

[edwing206]

Thanks! Those words mean a lot coming from you. Since I don't have a fast lens, I have to shoot with shorter exposure and brighten the picture up a bit.

 

[edwing206]

Here is a picture I really liked.
