My 280g Custom upgrade.....

Thanks Dustin. I did not use the image stabilizer. I was using various settings on the camera and thats why the lighting looks different in some of the pictures. All of the pictures were taken under the same lighting levels.

It really is amazing what you learn when you read the owners manual! I've had this camera for 6 yrs and this is really the first time I've sat down to learn about the various settings.

Steve, that's looking really nice. I've never seen those angels before.

I can't believe how mature the tank looks already. Mine still looks like a tumbleweed is going to roll by at any minute.

Nice shot Steve! That looks like a sun coral (Tubastrea) to me. Is it?

Thanks Rodney! it is a sun coral and the color is awesome when the light goes into sunset mode.

Thanks Alex! I had a lot...I mean a lot of corals in my 80 just waiting to get moved over.
The angels are awesome. the male was shy at first but as soon as I started taking pictures it seemed like he was showing off for the camera.

Thanks Kovy! I didnt realize how much stuff I had squeezed into my frag tank! I'd like to get some more sps in there and then let everything grow.

Thanks Henry....I did a freshwater dip after acclamation and then into the tank.

Everyone is happy, healthy and eating like pigs.

Cool...make sure everyone is getting a good dose of garlic over the next few weeks as they adjust.

I had the pleasure of meeting Steve and seeing this beautiful tank and setup today. Quite an impressive build, and no amount of pictures can do it justice.

:thumbsup:

Do you mean my 195 nano? My tank's not quite as mature as yours yet.

Your welcome to come down anytime!

Thats funny....195g Nano tank. I have a weird feeling that in six months it will be pretty well stocked up!!!!

 

[nightOwl]

Steve - Nice pickups! Pretty soon you will be fully stocked. The Chevron I was telling you about fell through today .

Steve, it's all looking great and completely jealous of the Sohal...I think he wants an 8 foot tank just outside of Indy to be his home

nope....you'll have to get your own!!!!! He's eating like a pig already. previous owner Saudi he loved pellets but I threw in some pe mysis last night and he went right for it along with the pellets. tonight as soon as he saw me near the tank he went right to the top and was circling like a shark. Cant wait to see his colors under the leds.
