Kirbaay what kind of camera do you use to take the pics? They're always awesome looking!!

 

I use a Canon 7D with a Canon 100mm 2.8 macro for the close up shots, then my other lenses are Canon 50mm 1.2, Canon 35mm 2.0, and Tokina 11-16 2.8.

 

I just got a new Misbar Clownfish yesterday along with a Orange Fungia Plate and a Chalice. i will post some pictures up later today when i get home from work!

 

Nice dude!

 

 

Thanks man!

tank update!!

well I got some more corals ( I have a problem(or do I?)). Finally I purchased a orange plate coral and a Chalice! I got the Orange plate for $45 and the Chalice frag for $25 so i would say that is a steal! aslo i added another damn clowfish that better stay alive!! this time i got a pretty misbar clownfish.

Any ways here are some pictures :lol:

Kirby,

 

how long has this tank been setup?

 

on the 22nd of this month it will be 7 months!

 

For some reason your tank looks way bigger tha it really is. Great pics and nice new additions!

 

Everybody always says that! I posted some pictures in a facebook group not to long ago and no body believed me, they all called me liars until i pulled out a measuring tape and showed them that it was 30x12x12 haha! I am excited about these additions to my tank i am finally happy where it is heading but by August this will all be stripped down and moved onto my next tank! thinking about a 36x24x18 or a 48x24x18 not sure yet!

Kirbaay looks awesome! Those corals look fantastic especially with just the blue light on them, I'm shocked you're getting as much coral growth as you are with that light fixture haha you're making me re-think my lighting plans lol

Kirbaay how much evaporation do you experience? And do you have an auto top off or anything? Or just fill it up yourself and keep an eye on it?

it evaporates about a gallon every 4 days probably even with a glass lid on my tank. im sure if i had nothing on it, it would be worse. I just manually fill it up. My tank is in my bedroom so i am never not by it. But i am meaning to buy a JBJ auto top off here in the future
