Chris' custom 150


Chris!

Too bad about the house Chris. Now you can work on the tank and doing some projects around your house. Nice macros!

 

Yeah it kinda sucked, found a bad ass little piece of land with a nice pond and stuff was gonna just build a new place but its getting cold and time is running out to start building for this year. Might try again in the spring with it picks back up again but not 100%. The house now is pretty well set, did pretty much everything within the last year you could think of.... but the yard could be made a bit more fun so that and a few odds n ends improvements are on the list for next year if we stay. I've got a few things in mind for the tank coming up too, but have a few other things on tap in the near future to tackle 1st then I will have more time to dedicate to the tank again ;)

 

Thanks man, I think macros are definitely my favorite way to shoot. just gotta sharpen up my game a bit and go back and check the tips Ben and a few others gave earlier in the thread :)

 

 

Hope everything has been going good for you as well man!!!!

Good luck on however things turn out. I'm still trying to find a steal on a macro. Every time I'm broke so when I find that hot deal. I think I'm gonna get another red linkia star, they add so much color and there always out and about.

Yeah either way its all good gonna make the best of it. The only thing really that sucks about this place is the location/schools.

 

I picked up my 60mm tamron for like $350 on ebay, refurbished but I love it. Takes some pretty good shots even with little skill IME lol

 

Linkias are pretty sweet, I had an orange one a few years back, this time I went with a fromia, supposed to be harder to keep I think but seems to be doing well :)

No I don't think theres much going on around here right now. Petco doesn't have much sps selection LOL

What about the Detroit or surrounding area stores- I know there's an sps frag with your name on it

Looks a lot different from the last time I saw it. Nice job on the cleanup.

I wish I could get my tank that clean without a rabbit. I have some nice macros and seagrass that I'd like to keep lol. I don't think my skimmer is quite performing up to snuff, though, so that may be the main reason.
