    Great pics man, I however did see some big Aiptasia lurking around, wondering if you like them around? Either way, great looking tank.

    You think your tank looks rough? I think it looks AWESOME!!. What is the green hair looking stuff? I really like your three separate lr piles as opposed to one continous one.

    Luna- Thanks. I deff. don't like them around. I have tried all the injections etc and they come back so finally I gave up on that and bought some berghia nudis. I am hoping they will do their job and my wrasse will leave them alone. I think I am going to inject all the ones see to maybe help the nudis out.

    gw- thanks. The green hair looking stuff is gsp (greens star polyps).

    What kind of camera and lens are you using? How about aperture, etc? Tank looks great!

    Thanks...the camera is a canon xti. The aperture changes automatically b/c I was shooting in fully auto. Lenses were the 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS and 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS and the flash was a 580ex. Camera setup is my friends. I was just borrowing it b/c I enjoy taking shots with it and haven't sprung for my own slr yet.

    cdeboard- the pepp. shrimp won't work as my mystery wrasse makes a quick snack out of any shrimp that decides to touch the water. That's why I am trying the berghias to see fi they work. If not I may end up trying a cbb but am worried about it snacking on my clams.
