Great looking macros again. You've got some crazy PE going on in that tank and the colors of those SPS are pretty unreal.
What do you normally do to get your white balance adjusted properly? I find when taking photos of the tank I can never consistently get my white balance adjusted to show the true colors of the corals. |

As for the white balance, I am just shooting with AWB with my Canon 5D mark iii. It seems to work fine (new processor?) however, with my prev Canon I usually set it to 10000K. |
Wow Wayne, those are soo SWEET!!!! Not to mention the snazzy photo skills! Cheers Ronnie

wow, just caught up with your latest photos and.. wow.. You've got quite the nice collection there and all doing fabulous! So now that you've pretty much got her dialed in, what's your husbandry like these days? That is, water change amount and schedule, dosing, additives, etc.

I've learned a lot from people I've met along the ways and applied their methods to mine. Water change: 20% every three weeks... I would like to do 20% every two weeks if time permits. I see vast improvements when I went from four to three. Dosing: DIY Alk, CA and MG right now... Planning to go with CA reactor soon... Probably in a yr.. Just want to use up what supply I have left still before switching. Carbon:changed every two weeks and I top up the biopellets when it gets low in the reactor. I am thinking of adding back GFO if I can't fight off the cyano Skimmer: clean the skimmer cup once a week and the whole skimmer twice a yr.. ATO:but not currently using it as I am able to top off daily right now ( why I don't use it as it gives me a reason to spend some time with the tank). I do plan to use it if I do get go away for a few days, holiday etc... Having the salinity levels being consistent helps... Feeding: feed frozen food every two or three days and if feed nori and dry pellets daily ( but lightly, of course). Other Dosing: add Zeozym twice a week ( I am adding daily right now) starting dec 5th Coral Snow nightly Vinegar daily MB7 weekly Biomate weekly I am planning to make some changes soon particularly on the rockscaping... Now that I have a better idea of how each of the SPS are growing I can redo the Tank. Thank goodness I have kept my 90 gallon in the garage. I won't be keeping all the corals so I am planning to have a second/ frag tank in the garage soon. Planning on this now... Devating to getting a new 4 ft long tank but shallower... 18 inches instead of 24? Considering changing the main lights and use the current lights for the garage tank... Any advice and recommendations? |
