    :D I've promised some time ago a tutorial/article about fish/invert/coral photography. I think I will write it before X-mas :p

    Heheheh! :) I got it from my LFS, here in Groningen, The Netherlands. It was really cheap ~30$ (after recalculation from EURO). I will take some good shots of my Goniopora stokesi ! It's 10" in diameter :) !

    SN400 sulfur nitrate reactor update (DAY17):
    Tank nitrates: ~ 0 mg/ml
    Reactor : ~ 0 mg/ml
    Effluent pH : ~ 7.8
    Flow : 1 drop/sec (around 0.2 gph)
    Ca ppm in effluent: > 600ppm (cloudy water)

    NOTE: I've spotted brown slime accumulating in nitrate reactor. It can be found around sulfur beads. These are Thiobacteriace that consume elemental sulfur and nitrates :) Finally, my biological filtration system is up and running! Once again, Aqua-Medic SN400 -> money well spent!

    Hey! Luna, no problem! It was around ~ 150$ here in Europe (after recalculation from EURO). It's made for tanks up to 100 gal. I'm very happy with its performance!

    Just for photo-lovers: (I'm working as a freelancer for university news paper). My tank-photo equipment (only the main part). I will post more photos in upcoming article about reef-tank photography!

    that's one awesome tank - and some great pix. i noticed your comment on your goniopora - how old is it, and what are you doing to keep it happy? I picked one up recently, and it's already struggling. So far, the sum advice of 3reefers has been 'don't get goni'. now that i have it, i'm looking for any help keeping the poor thing alive!
