Okay, so long time no post with tank shots.. I went nuts on pictures... so be warned I have quite a few to share. The tank looks amazing since adding the sea hare and you will all see... anyways enough babble, on with the pictures. :cool:

Here's the new light I got (not setup quite yet :confused: )
It's a 150w HQI in a floodlamp , 20k Ushio bulb.

That halide looks familiar, and it has a little bit of a story! Hahaha.

Get that thing up and running man!

Cheers,

Thanks guys

The tank is becoming more pleasurable to look at now that it requires much less maintenance and is always looking nice and clean.

The halide should be setup sometime this week... I am just going to hang it by using conduit pipe and put a bend in it, use zip ties to hold the wire up, and clamp it on a piece of wood attatched to the stand. Sounds ghetto, but looks clean!

I'll also have a 4" Croeca once the halide is up, some digitata frags and if all goes well an Acro colony.. that should add some color to the tank.

Nice pics

what type of camera are you using ?

OCDP

Thanks.

I am using a Pentax Optio S40? (don't quote me on the S40 part) lol..
It's an OK camera.. pictures always seem to turn out with some kind of haze over them, not crystal clear... it's annoying. Definitely not the greatest camera, but it's more than good enough for what I need it for.

Ahh you havent mounted the halide over the tank yet thats why you say it looks so blue. I agree it does look really blue when its sitting on the ground lit, but when you put it over the tank it wont look as blue.

The tank will look great with a clam and some sps in there!

I've mounted it over the tank myself just holding it in place.. looks blue, by no means a bad blue though. I like the look.. the shimmer, etc.

Halide should be up this week... stay tuned :smile:

Ahh thats good, hehe. Maybe its the fact you have a blue back-ground on your tank. My room has such baaaaaad colors it makes any color look bad haha. Cant wait to see it up!
