Let's see those mushroom pictures!

Thanks Bryan, now I feel like part of the 'shroom crowd, my tanks only been set-up for 4 months. It's cool to see 'shrooms reproducing in there! Thanks again!!
 
I've got a Nikon 885 cool-pix camera, do you photographers think I should use the basic setting, as opposed to the fine mode, then for the image size, utilize the vga setting? Are .jpg extensions the smallest, or, .gif or ??? (maybe I should stop playing with the computer & pay more attention to the camera!!)
 
Hey Bryan Thompson, that post with your pics on page 3... how big of a tank is the second picture with all the ricordia? You have a ton of them and it just looks like a huge tank you've got there!
 
That is a holding tank in my fish room. It is 6' wide 2.5' front to back and 20" deep. It has a 5" sand bed in it. The pipes on the right are for a platform I rest my acropora on so it does not get dead spots from sitting on the sand.

Here is a shot of my main tank. It is a 265 built into the wall.

Great tank Bryan. I don't believe I've seen that one on RC before. Glad you took the time to post it, even it is in the mushroom thread. ;)

And those recordias that someone else posted were from you? Great colors! Are recordias the kind of shroom that prefer MH?
 
This is a rare color morph of Discosoma carlgreni that was send to me as Ricordea. May not of been what I ordered, but still quite cool :D

The main tank is a 265 perfecto with custom overflows. I basically built the basement around it. The rest of my tanks are all custom built.

A red mushroom like the one above is being sold on Ebay right now as a red ricordia. It is NOT a red ricordia. It is from Florida though.

Hi Doomweasle,

those are very nice shrooms and camera shot...

what is your camera specs?

lighting? additives? and tank size?
 
Thanks Katchupoy!

I have an 18g tank with 32 watt pc's. I don't really dose additives that often. Maybe once a month or so. However, I do add bio plankton probably 4-5 times a week. These mushrooms grow incredibly though and in great colors. The one that is in the lower left was actually a hitchhiker that I have since fragged a bunch of times.

As for the camera, I have a sony DSC-F505. It is only a 2.1 megapixel but it has a 5x optical zoom and a nice macro.
 
Not quite sure if I can get these to post, but if they do, are these red shrooms going to be good for trades?
