    Well I finally graduated from my Biocube 29 to a 65 Gallon. Attached are some pictures. They aren't the greatest but I'm currently in the market for a camera that will take great pics.

    I moved from my 29g to my 65g about 4 weeks ago and so far eveything has been going great. Some of the corals are still acclimating while others didn't take much time at all. So if you notice some that are open and others that are not, that's why.

    Any honest critiquing is welcome.

    Thanks!

    Currently it is a mix of T5 and LED. For the T5's, I'm running 2 blue, 1 actinic, and 1 white. The LED fixture is an Evergrow with dimmable channels. There is only 1 LED fixture because I wanted to test and try the unit out before purchasing 2 of them and getting rid of the T5's entirely. One isn't enough for the entire tank.

    It took a lot of playing around with the light source to get the camera to take a halfway decent pic.

    very, very nice!! Love the pictures and your tank! The colors are so varied and crisp. What is the red bubbled coral? It's gorgeous! Also, what is the flower like coral that is the 5th one back from the last one? Love the look of that one! You truly have some stunning corals in the tank and I think the lights really show them off brilliantly.
