Sorry Gena, I completely missed your post. I personally think around 200 is fair as its a pretty common color, but ive seen them sell for much higher.

 

I've seen them wholesale for more lol

 

 

Great shots tho man, whatever your doing differently is definitely working for ya!! not that your pics were horrible or anything before :)

Bringing em to the new page...

I dont know what the difference is between now and when I last tried shooting with this camera, but I'm having NO problem getting pretty awesome shots.

 

Shot under a B+ and a True Actinic

Im not sure what is going on with my nem, it seems very healthy, hasent moved an inch, gets fed regularly, but the center has gotten pale while the tentacles are getting brighter... who knows

It depends on which one, I got that here locally for 175 retail, and have seen much better ones go for less wholesale locally.

 

Nice shots!

Thanks broski

How long ago did you get it... a year+ ago I could get them around that retail no problem, now not so much for the most part.

 

I haven't looked in a while but I just checked a second ago to see if they have gone back down at all.... one place had one similar (but IMO not quite as nice) had one for $150 but you had to spend an additional 1500 on "general" stock :lol:

Thanks! Thats the first time Ive managed to get a good picture of the pink boobies. As for sand... see above :D

 

Amazing pics, that nem looks magical.

I really appreciate it. The nem is really looking awesome, I hope the faded out body is healthy, but i would think it would have moved if it wasnt happy.

Nice...wish I had room to add some color like that. I'd have to remove something to do it and I don't want to get rid of anything. Oh well...next tank.

Nem pics are really great. We need close ups of the pink boobies. Bc bewbs. How many times can we say boobies in a thread before it goes to far? I mean, boobies of any color are good, boobies in a tank are great, where do pink boobies in a tank rate?

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

 

I was doing a water change today and took a few more pics, I haven’t cleaned my glass in a week, so I stuck with more top downs. These had all bulbs on.
