Your aquascaping is really great too! My tank is a standard 90 gallon...same as yours, but 48" instead of 60". You have done a great job with the rock considering the width and height. I wish I had the patience to do that!

Btw, I'm pretty sure this coral is Montipora samarensis "Forest Fire". I have one, and it looks just like yours.

Thanks Myka!!!! no the macro lens doesn't blackout the background. I don't adjust this in CS2 ether. they are black because am shooting through the aquarium and the whole room is typically pitch black with the exception of the aquarium lights. I also under expose the picture when am shooting them.

As far as the rock work believe it or not i had a mock-up aquarium and made papermaches first to see exactly what i wanted to do and how I wanted it to look, from there I put the rocks together oh and the rocks are not glued just pegged.

thanks for the positive ID on that coral. I'll make a note of that one.
