Still looks great! Last pic is my fav.

 

Yup pretty nice Stylophoa. Polyps are starting to get a light green tint to them.

 

I'm assuming this is a Chalk Bass then??

 

You are correct sir Chalk bass. Shot does not do it justice though, the colore are blues and maroon, with some gray.

 

looks great spanko, tailspots rule

 

Tailspots are th bomb!!!!

 

You continue to inspire, sir! How are you handling the dosing? Manually or with a pump?

 

Dosing is manual. About 15 ml of ESV part A and B daily. 6 drops of Mohawk vodka and two drop Brightwell Amino Acids daily. And weekly dosage of Prodibio Nano Pack. And rarely some Brightwell magnesium.

There are two and they are both photosynthetic, so light! A Pterogorgia sp. and a Plexaurella sp.. And whatever they get flying around in the water column. Thank you for the comment.

Thank you everyone for the nice comments. Still need some more grow out. Caught the Plexaurella sp. rubbing against the bottom of one branch of a monti digi. Burned the flesh right off!!! :o :o

I wish I could figure out how to use white balance on the camera. Things look too pale in the pics as compared to reality.

 

I'm no graphics guy, but I've had a lot of luck using Google's Picasa (free download), there's even an "I'm feeling lucky" button which seems to do a pretty good job. Obviously you can do much more with photoshop and I'm sure you could become a camera expert, but I've found this to do a good job.

Well sorry to have you go through this again.........but I found a setting on the camera called exposure. I read something that said for aquarium shooting you may want to put the exposure down to -1 or -2........so I did. All this time I thought I was too stupid to use the white settings and really some adjustment in the exposure helped to bring out the real color of the tank and coral. Here are the results.
