Wow very nice pictures!

 

[beeguiles]

May I ask what kind of camera you are using?

 

[noy]

canon t2i - the camera is less important than the lenses you are using.
i shoot mostly with a marco 100mm/f2.8, always on a tripod
i use f2.8 - 4.5 setting for the close up shot and f8 for the wider shots. always with a timed release. white balance at 7K
for the fishies i use a 50mm/fixed with a f1.8 aperture and try to shoot at minimum of 1/60 speed. no tripod on the fish shots

Recent SPS acquisitions. Still light acclimating (on a frag rack).

Acropora sp. (Red Planet). The reddish purple polyps don't quite come out in picture.

Not sure why i do this but bought a chili coral. Yep, add another non-photo, hard to care for coral in the mix. Its in the corner until i figure out what to do with it. I only get polyp extension at night and have been target feeding it. The LFS had a much bigger colony but i really didn't like the colouration and they couldn't get any polyp extension (even in the dark).

My Mandarin getting robbed by Tangs!

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyQqC_QtjB0]Mandarin Eating Pellets (with Hungry Tangs) - YouTube[/ame]

 

[Steveg229]

Poor little guy...LOL Its cool that he is eating pellets. Did you train him to eat pellets?

 

[noy]

he's used to the tangs. they actually don't bother him except eat his food, haha.

yeah, slow process getting him to eat fresh brine shrimp/ then frozen and then pellets. Funny, i noticed he was scoping out the tangs when they were eating their pellets when i realized that he may potentially eat pellets himself.

 

[Steveg229]

Thats pretty cool. I am waiting for my tank to mature a a bit more and the pod population to increase before I get mine!

Sun Coral Propagation
Once your sun corals get established you will get propagation from your colony "spewing" out mini polyps. Unfortunately most of mine end up stuck under the rockwork and don't make it. This is the only survivor so far.
