LivingStrong08 Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 I wish you all could see the true beauty of this in person.. But this is in complete darkness and EVERY CORAL glows with the Actinics on... AMAZING... Link to comment
LivingStrong08 Posted June 18, 2010 Author Share Posted June 18, 2010 Soooo I am so happy with what I decided to do while my wifey is away on a business trip! I pulled out the ol’ camera and started playing with settings and shutter, balance, etc on the camera. I have to say, I am absolutely pleased with the results!!! I took pictures with pure Halides (No Actinic Supplementation) and others with just the Add on LED Actinic. This is the closet that I have been able to get to what I actually see in my tank. So first: FTS no Actinic Acan Garden no Actinic Cool Picture of my Coral Garden (Left side only) Zoa Garden, with Joe the Coral.. I moved him to high, lowered, and he is coloring up in a matter of days. No Actinic Green Bay’s, Bam Bam’s, Candy Apple Red’s, and a I am not sure on small colony next to the Green Bay’s… Any idea’s? No Actinic Left Front, no Actinic Fungi Plate, with Aussie Acan, etc. no actinic Shrooms, no Actinic BamBam’s Actinic Only Darth Maul, African Steel Blues, and what I like to call “Planet Orange” Zoa’s (They are Purple and Orange…Suns colors.) Eagle Eyes Actinic Only Zoa, Rics, pure Actinic Link to comment

LivingStrong08 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 Sorry for the delay! Things have been great with the tank! My RBTA's are insane! I have five total. Two are close to. 10" - 12" and the. The other three are about 5"-6" total. Sorry I know the tank is a little dirty. Link to comment
LivingStrong08 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 Few more pictures: Rics: My Picasso's in their RBTA, I actuall confirmed tonight that I have five total from this one. My clowns are about 2.5-3" so the RBTA is a good size: Another: GSP rock: From the right: Link to comment
LivingStrong08 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 I have recieved a few requests for the bottom sump area. I will take when I get home. Right now, we are debating on what's still missing. Any suggestions? No SPS, i don't dose, and I dont think I am going to do a reactor on this bad boy. For those wondering what happen to my extensive collection of Acans, the RBTA's happened. When I was in Kauai, my RBTA split, and both decided to move, killing everything, and I mean everything in their paths. I think I may buy my first Acan soon, wounds are still deep. Link to comment

I'm actually wanting to add SPS, however I don't dose and I need a reactor first, I'm trying to get good Suggestions on maybe something that won't break may pocket book to much, hahaha!
