Sorry for the late reply guys we were busy at ReefAPalooza.

WOW!!!! very nice!!! Love that bright orange chalice!
Thank you!


Let's see a full tank shot! Or as much as you can in one photo haha
This is about two months ago, as much as I can get with the D90/Tamron 17-50mm setup. Pretty soon we're going to get a 28mm fixed lens for the D610 which should be much better for full tank shots.







d@mn some amazing pictures u got there.. +1 on the full tank shot!! :)
Thank you!


Crazy pics, what are you using?
We just got a D610 with a Nikon 105mm macro. Much faster at focusing on the corals in the show tank than our previous D90/Tamron 90mm macro setup, it's pretty much instant lock on anywhere you point. We also just got Lightroom 5, previously had 4, and we also purchased the Avast Marine Top Down Porthole not to long ago.


wow.....nice pieces......love the growth in all your corals....would love to see the FTS.....
Thank you! More FTS coming soon!


Wow some bad as$ chalices!!!!!
Thanks we love chalices!


Is that the tangerine dream?
I don't think it's in any of these pics, but there is a colony in this tank.

Wow love the FTS..what kind of lighting are you using if you don't mind me asking?
2 Rows ReefBrite XHO LED Actinic - 9am - 8pm
2 Rows RedSea REEF-SPEC Actinic - 11am - 7pm
2 Rows RedSea REEF-SPEC Actinic - 1pm - 4pm
1 Rows RedSea REEF-SPEC BlueWhite - 1:30pm - 3pm



That's very impressive. Nice pics!
Thanks! Just noticed they were accidentally taken on the JPEG-Normal setting instead of RAW! Oops! The next batch should be better with less blown out highlights and not as purple.

Very cool bad a$$ chalices so do does reef brights xho penetrate your t5s
Yes, the XHOs are very powerful and spread like a T5. Instead of using optics to spread the ReefBrites aim towards a reflector and back onto the tank like a T5.
