    I've only been able to capture one decent picture of my blood red. I do have one where he darted backward real quick and so I only have a faint silhouette.

    I like them.. So different. A peachy plumb color and such distinctive. The white head bar and strip down the back is very cool

    Thanks Chris,

    I was torn between the Picasso and the Pink Skunk. My last pair of clowns were the B/W misbar and they would grunt or make a snapping sound at each other occasionally, I thought it was very cool. So I looked it up and it turns out that Skunk clowns have the ability to chirp to one another. I have done the black and orange and black white so decided I would try something completely different. My third choice are the Black Ice or Snow Flake.

    If god wanted me to have different clown types he would have given more tanks. ;) Maybe someday.

    see, it wasn't so hard to take a picture.. LOL... Nice choice.
    My favorites are the bullet hole and the jigsaw clowns but as most of y'all know I don't get a say in the clowns for my tank. One day.. I'll get my revenge.. oh wait, I better keep quiet before she finds out about all the other stuff I've purchased without knowledge.. :)

    Thanks, the image sucks though. It does not show the beauty of the clowns off. :p

    FTS under mostly whites. Tank will be 2 months on the 24th, come on coralline algae.

    Those are nice clowns. Tank is progressing very well. How are you liking the led set up vs your halides from years ago?

    I like the LEDs for a couple reasons

    1. Little heat.
    2. I can sit on my couch with the controller and change the coloration, intensity and storm affects. Silly but very cool

    Not my favorite aspects.

    1. Spot light and disco effects.
    2. It's hard to dial intensity and a huge learning curve to achieve the right coloration to corals.

    In my perfect world I would have gone with the ATI T5/LED hybrid or the Giesemann Hybrid.

    Thanks for the complement on the clowns. :)

    It looks like you already have more and bigger coral than I do.
