Metznreef Posted July 4, 2002 Author Share Posted July 4, 2002 all the rock really has nice purple and pink coraline coverage and it even has a little orange, but you cant see it cause the pics suck!!!!!!!! ahhhhhhhhh Link to comment
NaNO ReeFiN Posted July 4, 2002 Share Posted July 4, 2002 Nice looking tank you have there Metz. I have the same problem with my camera... (I think it's the actinic lighting..) Try taking pictures with the lights on in your room as well, it should reduce the blueish color. Link to comment
Christopher Marks Posted July 4, 2002 Share Posted July 4, 2002 It's cool to finally see your tank Metznreef! I think having the lighting on in the room would help the photos a little. Maybe the camera has some sort of filter you can set for fluorescent lighting too? Link to comment
Metznreef Posted July 4, 2002 Author Share Posted July 4, 2002 i took some better pics adjusting the contrast and dimming the light some. they are a little better. i also got some close ups of the live rock, i should have them up in a little while. as soon as my neighbor sends me the picks. i just put the live rock in saturday and i havn't noticed an ammonia spike yet and all levels are good. there are copods all over the place!

Metznreef Posted July 4, 2002 Author Share Posted July 4, 2002 here's the pics after i dimmed the lights on the tank by placing a paper towel underneath them: Link to comment
Metznreef Posted July 4, 2002 Author Share Posted July 4, 2002 live rock close up: is this a sponge?: Link to comment
Jay Fortay Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 i like the rock work a lot. I like the reef wall going on in the left corner. and i belive taht is a sponge Link to comment
Christopher Marks Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 It's hard to tell from the photo, but it seems to me to be some macro algae. You'll have a better idea once it grows more. Link to comment
Metznreef Posted July 5, 2002 Author Share Posted July 5, 2002 there is quite a bit of little macro algae spouts in the tank. once i get corals and my own digital camera to take better pics, i'll post some more up. Link to comment
Sahin Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 Nice tank you got there. Good shaped rocks too-excellent for nice coral aquascaping. Good coralline growth too. Link to comment
Metznreef Posted July 6, 2002 Author Share Posted July 6, 2002 yeah i tyed to pick the best rock i could to fit alot of corals into a small space. Link to comment
Satchmo Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 Very nice Metz. I too like the rockwork. If you're going to pick up a camera, make sure you get one with a macro feature. You'll be able to get some really nice hi-res closeups. Link to comment
