What type of camera do you use? My Reefmaster (older model with film) takes lousy pics. I want to upgrade.

Thanks.

ITs and Olympus Stylus 770sw. I love it. It has a rapid fire mechanism that allows me to take several pics in a row which eliminates any blur and allows me to choose the best picture and delete the rest.

Great shots!

great pictures... looking forward to getting an underwater housing my self. Those cuddle fish are awesome, I saw a small school in Hurghada. I hope I get to see them next time I'm out there.

 

[jnarowe]

I would not want to get into a school of those!

 

[Cougarman]

Actually this camera doesnt need any underwater housing. It's an underwater camera designed to dive to 33 feet. I took 600 pics in about 1 hr of snorkelling. Most of them I deleted as the fish dont pose very wel for pictures.

Is it a cuttlefish or a squid? I thought it was a cuttlefish. There were about a dozen of them all lined up a kind of formation.

looks like a cuttle fish to me.

ever seen the discovery episode on them where all they do is attack each other and anything in their way. very cool

 

[tangdiver]

Yep a cuttle fish, helped take care of them Las Vegas, and in Omaha.

Great things, but hard to keep.

I was watching The Blue Realm on TV this morning. They were discussing these creatures. It seems these are Carribean Reef Squid.

I'll clean the tank and see if I can't get some new pictures. There hasn't been many changes, a couple of additions as far as fish, 5 Bangi Cardinals, and 1 Yellow Mimic tang. Moved a few of the leathers out of the 470 and placed them in the tank. (The lobster was eating them like candy....), and they seem to be recovering.

NO KIDDING! I have a house that needs a new bathroom & kitchen, I'll bet Lunch could do both in a weekend for me. Do you think he would do it for a chiller & skimmer?

 

[jnarowe]

You crack me up Chuck...the lobster was eating them like candy...

With the way LB moves, I think you might have a deal...I can't remember how long it was, but it took me quite a while just to get the sheetrock out of my tank room and re-build the walls...from the start of construction, maybe a 14 day project for him?? :lol:

 

[clekchau]

lol this lobster is a hit

 

[Lunchbucket]

Chuck if you mean that 702 that you have we might have a deal Remember we haven't seen my finished products yet guys...I might have it turn out like crap My project seems like it's taking forever. I like to move fast and get done.

Chuck you'll have to let me know what you want for that sub panel.

Can't wait to see pics Chuck

Going back in time....

Going back in time....

Back in November, I got to visit Chuck's tanks. He's been patiently waiting for me to post some pictures of what I took those days, and my guilty conscience plagues me knowing that it has been backburnered for so long. In no particular order, here are some images:

Wobegong shark, in the stingray tank

Henichocus & anemone tank

Puffer & Lion tank
