Eric, that's crushed coral in the frag tank. It's the CaribSea Florida Crushed Coral, Geo-Marine Formula. In the display, I use the CaribSea Seaflor Special Grade Reef Sand

Here is a shot of my little orange with blue base yuma. He seems so lonely there all by his lonesome self

YUCK!

 

[pookstreet]

Exactly my sentiments.

BTW, what type of lighting does the Icefire like?

You can put the ice fire basically anywhere in the tank and it will do well. I prefer to put it mid level that way you still have your lower levels for your LPS.

 

[pookstreet]

Cool. That'll give me more options in terms of placement cuz the tank desperately need more light. It got it in the frag tank now.

Here are some fish pix I too last night. tacocat, you might like the first two.

I have mine high in the tank, about five inches from the top. BTW, did you really get the flavoguttatus?

Mark, I used the Canon Rebel XT with the standard lense shooting in the sport mode. I am still trying to learn how to use this camera and which settings are best when shooting different subjects.

Thanks dude. I think I'll keep it in the frag tank until it grows bigger b/c it can get more light there.

No, I was just messing around. Don't know enough about them yet so I didn't want to put them in the tank along with my harem of Barlett's. They are beautiful fish and I know I can get them if I wanted some. Do you know anything about that fish? Such as hardiness, food preferences, etc.?

 

[spleen93]

OK, my sucky pictures of trying to capture the beauty of Kenny's tank from my visit to his place.

 

[pookstreet]

Thanks dude. They are much better than my feeble attempts. My tank shots always seemed to be a bit too washed out.

 

[spleen93]

Now, you just need to get your efflo to color back up since it's such a focal point for the tank. :lol:

 

[pookstreet]

I'll head out now and get a can of purple and a can of green spray paint

 

[pookstreet]

And oh yeah, the sandbed has been cleaned up a bit since those shots were taken. I can actually see the sand :lmao:

 

[erics3000]

Cool thanks. I used a few bags of the carabisea special grade in my fuge. I really liked it.


Love that wrasse..

 

[pookstreet]

New Orenji Chalice I just picked up.

My Gold Digger Echino I've had for a while. The gold highlight is coming in nicely but very hard to capture on camera.

 

[pookstreet]

A few Favias I've been growing out from frags. The first one has insane colored mouths that I didn't noticed until I moved it for the photos.

 

[murphysfish]

very nice clam and wrasses

Also a nice little gold teardrop maxima I got from a trade at RAP

Is That maxima really flanked by the Vivid Echino and the Monster mash??????????????????????????????????????????/

 

[pookstreet]

Thanks murphysfish.

Ryan - I just moved the Echinos there for the shot. The Clam is there on the crate temporarily until I figure out where to put it in the main tank.
