This is the hardest darn thing to try to photograph for some reason. Add two ocellaris fish who think the world's after them and you get like a 0.1% photo retention rate if you try to include them ... :rolleyes: So anyhow here are 2 shots out of about 20 I took tonight, the only two worth not deleting that is .. need more practise I guess :exclaim:

Tony, your anemone looks fantastic. How 'bout a shot of the whole thing?

This is the most recent shot I have featuring the whole thing ... it's a little overexposed though I should try playing around with it a bit and see if I can fix that (or try some new shots!)

Thanks Tony, boy does it ever look healthy. I saw two in King Ed's the other day. I hope someone with some know how buys them.

Christy - the trick is to go at the sand with the turkey baster before you snap a pic .... :wink:

Actually that tank seems to be mostly OK, there are 3 conchs that turnover the top. There is the occasional cyano here or there. My 75 is nowhere near as clean right now. :redface:

Fantastic Tony...Great to see it doing so well!
As nice as THE pics are this anenome has to be SEEN to be believed!
How many of us have healthy Ritterii with a diameter close to half a meter?....

It still looks great Tony. :cool: You have to see it for real, then you really get impressed by the size and health. :mrgreen:

Wasn't sure if I should start a new thread or just add to this one. Decided on the latter, hope that's copesetic. :)

Some updated shots.. :)

You know, I don't care if it goes on murderous tank rampages - I still like it. And yes, it sure does look spectacular in person - but is it a bit "greener" or is that the camera?

That looks awsome. Makes me almost want to setup a species only tank.

It does look greener, is it the lighting or camera?

Delphinus

You know, I don't really notice that? Must be a function of the camera settings. Maybe it's a white balance thing? I can try again.
