Hows that starry blenny? Love how in that one pic it looks like the rock is giving you the finger
I'll have to try the sports mode, thanks! I had flash off for sure with all the pics. Room lights - They were actually all off! Haha. Problem is walkout basement with a ridiculous amount of windows. I tried covering a couple but... I'll do pics at night instead.

Starry blenny is really cool! He is very personable and active. He runs and hides when I first show up, but then comes right back out after a minute or two and hangs out waiting for food.

Lol that rock is a funny one. I think I might fiddle a bit with the aquascape. It did have little blue clove polyps on it before, but they receded in old tank.

Thanks Brett.
Actually im starting to question my choice with the cardinals... im not sure they are going to enjoy the waterflow... they already get blown around quite a bit. Not sure why I bought the 3 different types... it was a bit of an impulse. If I did it again, i'd go with either the tailspot or threadfins only, but again, the current might pose an issue with these...

Haha, the front piece of glass is about 2mm lower than the sides, i've definitely splashed water over the front every time I dip my hands in! (part of the reason tank was cheap lol).

Thanks for info on BWI. Will look into it beforehand.

I'll look into those. Thank-you!
