    Thanks John.Needless to say I did not go in to the LFS to purchase a Comet but the owner had several and this was the last one left.He had been in the store for 4 months and he wanted him to get a good home.lol
    It was love at first sight.;D

    LOL Yeah every time I think its gonna split...It doesn't......

    Same camera. The Sympodium is just awesome.I love the movement and under the blue led's it glows.It also displays various shades of blue,green depending on the light it receives.:)

    Dayum! Very impressive toadstool, Vinny. Looks like you might need a bigger tank before long. Certainly gives me cause for concern... :eek:

    Actually, mine seems to have stopped growing, or at least has slowed dramatically. Hopefully it's your LEDs (or maybe a different species).

    Beautiful shots, Vinny. That toadstool has really grown since the last pics... it's enormous! Love the sympodium, too. Glad to see the tang has healed. :)

    I am shocked.I have never seen a TS this big.I hope it splits soon.;)
    Thanks Mr. B you would never know he was close to death.:)

    Thanks Jerry I figured out that my camera has several settings for WB.I used the one called shade which is around 7000k.I figure closer to 10k would be better.There is a custom WB setting so I will play with that a little tom.;)
    The ATS has been working great.My corals,fish and plants love it.;D
    Just cleaned a big sheet of algae off it today.
    Bubble algae is almost totally gone from the DT.
    Keep an eye out for some equipment for sale as it looks like I will be moving. I will be purchasing a new aquarium prior to the move so I can set it up at my new place.;)
