cees Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 lol i hardly ever edit my pics. especially of my tank, wat software do u use? Link to comment
squirrelieygrrrl Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 Lightroom 3, it's fantastic for editing and cataloging. Plus I shoot in raw, and edit in raw, so it has to be converted into a jpeg image. Link to comment
cees Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 i was looking into getting lightroom. maybe a lil later in the future when my tank has some pic worthy stuff lol. now ill leave u to finish editing cuz i wana see wat u got! Link to comment
squirrelieygrrrl Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 Some of the stuff was still po'ed as you can see, others I just couldnt get a decent shot of like the pocillopora. Ill try again on friday. In other news, the devil YCG had to be removed, he went all rogue on me and decided everything was good to eat in the tank. So he is at Ambers clasroom bc14. Link to comment
cees Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 looking really good! love the fts. and yea once they pick at something there gana pick at everything! poor guy lol i never paid attention to ur scape till just now, love it! Link to comment
squirrelieygrrrl Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 Thanks cees! I think I still need to rework the right side a bit, but its definitely growing on me. I hope he makes it in there, he is awfully cute, but Amber has a huge rock flower nem in her tank, so if he isn't wise he will definitely end up a snack. Link to comment
Paandemonium Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 That's the ugly side, I was too embarrassed to take a shot from the front. Such are the struggles of this reef life x) what is this?! And can I have some eventually? Look, I'll hopefully be a plastic surgeon in ten years... I'll hook you and your girl up with a new set of gravity-proof everything for some of this Link to comment
Ebn Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Looks like a red planet. Nice bounce back from your CAD experience. Link to comment

I think we'll pass on the anti gravity offer. Thanks love! Looks like a red planet. Nice bounce back from your CAD experience. Thanks! Link to comment

For what ever reason my camera/lens just doesn't shoot well in the back half of the tank. Link to comment
gena Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Nice stuff! I noticed your yellow clown goby on the clam...does he/she go there often? LOL. I love that slimer! It's probably my favorite SPS. I just love the color and growth pattern. I finally have one in my new tank. Link to comment

It's probably my favorite SPS. I just love the color and growth pattern. I finally have one in my new tank. He took to hanging out on the clam all the time, and then nipping at its siphon. To the point that the clam was exibiting signs of pinched mantle due to irritation. Cute as he was he had to go. They are definitely one of my favorites as well, the other smooth skinned acro is pretty sweet too, it grows in a curling sweeping pattern. Link to comment

squirrelieygrrrl Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 Yea, once he started nipping in the clam he decided to nip and just about everything in the tank except the lps. Definitely targeting the sps. You might want to read the reef keeping article on them. Link to comment
squirrelieygrrrl Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 Also a pretty nice shot of the mystery wrasse Link to comment
jgpico Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I absolutely love that pic of the mystery wrasse. I have always wanted one. How do you think one would do in my 30? Would you not recommend it? They are by far one of my favorite fish. I love your tank... Link to comment
Gramophone Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Love the tank! And an excellent choice of corals. I know how hard it can be to get a good picture of a mystery wrasse. You got a great shot Link to comment

Would you not recommend it? They are by far one of my favorite fish. I love your tank... Thanks jg, I kind of feel bad for the mystery wrasse in my 38, it's not long enough for him imo. They are very active swimmers, I think he was much happier in my cad as it was a 36 in long tank. He kind of does a repetitive swim pattern in the IM. Why not try a small flasher instead? I saw a very nice royal flasher on divers den last night. They tend to stay small and seem to not require as much territory. Though jumping may be more of a concern. Love the tank! And an excellent choice of corals. I know how hard it can be to get a good picture of a mystery wrasse. You got a great shot Thank you so much! Link to comment
JCG66 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Really liking the new additions!!! Have you tried lowering the light intensity for the new corals maybe reason for PE? Love the redplanet, lost mine from a £¥ty batch of saltwater from LFS. Surprised that ycg didn't get shut on lmao Link to comment

Love the redplanet, lost mine from a £¥ty batch of saltwater from LFS. Surprised that ycg didn't get shut on lmao Thanks, I've dialed it back quite a bit. We will see if that helps. That little stinker was quick, it took me 3 days of stalking to catch him. I was on the verge of taking all the rock out. Link to comment
