REEFROOKS 10G ADA 45-P

I just take a really blurry pic of the sand.

 

that's what i do to adjust the white balance for normal tank shots. if i use a white plastic lid or even the white background, the pics come out too orange.

[reefrook]

those are some nice colors.

good job!

 

 

looking great!

 

 

Looks Great!

 

thanks!m

 

 

Looks good, but now the white balanced is pushed too far into green territory I really like the idea of a white background!

 

 

I like the white background too....

 

yea..i got the idea from this totm http://www.nano-reef.com/featured/?tank=17

i thought his white walls provided a great background

That green cap looks amazing. Where did you get it?

got it from a local reefer selling big pieces for real cheap. he sold me that piece for just $20.

but yea..thanks for the compliment. judging by how healthy your orange cap looks, it should reach a good size in no time

I think rimless tanks look best with a white background, but one not actually attached to it in anyway. I'm looking at upgrading from a standard 20H to a rimless 30 and wasn't planning on putting a background on it if I can do a decent job of hiding wires.

 

As far as your pictures are concerned, you can't even set white balance on my camera.

some new updates...

all my yumas all of the suddenly detached from their rocks. one of them took a ride through the mp10. i got the rest in the fuge...hopefully they'll attach again so i can put em back in the display

 

my onyx died...just stopped eating, started getting weak, then was a meal for the snails

 

bicolor blenny also kicked the bucket... i was cleaning the tank one day and when i turned the pumps back on, i didn't realize he was pickin algae in the mp10. it was too late before i noticed.

 

on a brighter note, got some new frags, a new yasha goby and a rock anemone. here's some pics of those and some other random pics

 

magician palys

my favorite fish....he's gettin fat!

bam bams been goin wild

Yup! I squirt a bunch of mysis near him and he slurps em down. Lately he's been a little more proactive and has been going after the pipette that I use to target feed.

[reefrook]

i hit up the $10 rack at my lfs and came back with a couple frags

also picked up a trio of sexies but one of them is m.i.a.

and two random shots

[Rehype]

thanks guys!

[redkneecoral]

not much to update besides some new frags and some pics.

 

finally got a hold of some blastos which i have been wanting for a while now. picked em up from madfragsonline.com. $10 a head and they're located in illinois, so i just picked them up.

also bought a favia frag from the lfs. not a big fan of favias but it happened to be on the clearance rack so i couldn't resist.

here are some random shots

left side of the tank

right side

fts (i changed the color of the wall behind the tank from black to white.... i kinda like it. looks cleaner)

hungry acans

 

i was playing around with my camera and really annoyed that all my shots with just the royal blue leds looked like this

 

so i figured out how to make a custom white balance (which i figure everybody knows how to do except for me) and the shots turned out to look pretty wicked!

 

What great pix, those colors are explosive. I love it

You have added so much

great looking tank

[mastahluong]

Love the tank! maybe I'll get one just like it

 

I love all the colors in the tank. Can we get a current FTS?

Looks great as usual

[cameraman_2]

Looks great. I can't wait to hit the 6 month mark and maybe add a clam...if i have room by then.

do it! out of all the things in my tank, i think my clam is the easiest thing to care for.

hmmmm, you may want to frag that birdsnest.

[redkneecoral]

i would love to have a frag from that birdie lol

[reefrook]

hmmmm, you may want to frag that birdsnest.

 

yea...when i first got it i had my light down too low. some STN started happening at the base. as soon as i raised the light up a little higher, the STN stopped. i know i should frag it but i'm hoping i can keep its shape by letting it encrust over the dead area.

 

i would love to have a frag from that birdie lol

 

if i frag, you can help yourself to a piece!
