Re: Need help with aquarium photography

I am setting up a 150 g tank and would like to take pics to make a diary of my progress. All my pictures have been turning out really bad. Usually the pictures are very blue where I can not see inside the tank. My camera is a sony slr camera. Is there anyone familiar with this type of camera that c...

Re: Extra 10 Gallon! What should I do?

10g would make a cool display for a single frogfish!! They meet all that criteria! Or a small N. Wennerae mantis shrimp.

Re: The new 210 gallon!

Tank is looking very nice 8) In the second pic, below and to the right of the Powder Blue Tang, what is that fish? It's a silver moony. Technically a brackish water fish.

Re: The new 210 gallon!

Well.. My diy led project is currently at a stand still. I got to figure out exactly what's wrong and get a new multimeter. I'm stuck... I think I burned up the driver, not sure though. But I did get some new adds!!! Powder Blue Tang http://i967.photobucket.com/albums/ae157/thatgrimguy/210%20Gallon%...

Re: 48x24x24 saw one, oh damn, decision time....

You will be happy you have that extra depth and water volume. It's definitely worth it!!! You are going to love those dimensions! And you will be able to run it with basically the same lighting and flow. Most definitely worth it! (all that extra room below for a nice sized sump too!)

Re: The new 210 gallon!

Ya'll are godsend I will definitely need it!! And Wes, as soon as I get confirmation of the sale, I am going to have you start on a new sump for the tank. If I have to move I can at least get a proper sump in the process! Something that can hold a little more water volume! The move is a close one fo...

Re: Plate Coral Question

I read something in a National Forum that I didn't know, there is a bunch that I don't :lol: know but this kinda surprised me. This reefer was asking what plate corals needed, to do good in his tank. The reply was that they needed to be in a low flow area of the tank or they would move on their own...

Re: The new 210 gallon!

Looks like there is a potential move in my future! Got an offer on my house that I accepted and is just pending bank approval. If so, I'll be moving the current set up and myself to a temporary location and building a place. My goal dimensions for the new tank and new house??? Hmmm, all I know is it...
