Through the Looking Glass

So adding to the confusion of names, I have a Mr. Pacman that I have had for a while. It is getting blasted with light which is perhaps not the best place for it. I have a small frag mini-colony that is shaded and the main body is much darker and purpler (not sure if purpler is a word, maybe has more purple in the body would be more correct). Anyway, this is the main colony

My first clam in a very long time. I put him on that large plug in the frag tank for a couple of days so he could set his tush down before I put him in the display. My wrasses like knocking things over and i am sure had he fallen over, he would be eaten.
 
I love how you get your white balance sorted so well mate, really great to see your acros close to the real beauty you get to see. That blue milli is crazy beautiful :thumbsup:

Love this shot, it's like you're cradling your newborn child lol - that acro whatever species is just beautiful, i want that bloody clam too while we're on the subject.........;)

Thanks, I work really hard trying to get the pictures to appear as realistic as possible, sometimes it comes out right and sometimes it comes out less close. Halides and t5's are pretty easy. Wish I was better at it. I am impressed with the LED guys who can get their pictures lifelike, I have tried and failed with LED photography
 
Man I love your photography skills. Real to life.

Are you still on your old routine of using only GFO with little GAC and no carbon dosing?

Lousy picture of a really beautiful millie. I certainly did not do a very good job of getting the reflection out of the view box. Nonetheless, I think still worth sharing. You can see my red convexa, stunning palmers blue milie, strawberry fields, a pretty blue tennis and a few others. I am not much of a DIY guy but I am proud to say I made the view box

Hi, thank you. PM and I'll get you a frag of the strawberry fields. My colony is not very big but I can probably get you an ok frag of it.

Thanks, Leonardo. Your tank is always awesome. Wish I could be as meticulous as you are.
 
This tank is so inspiring great collection of species. Hope some day I could have something similar with my tank!
