Hi guys,

I recently acquired a Nikon D70s (used) for 400$.. and its probably the best 400$ I have spent. It included 2 batteries, a lens, cables, etc, etc...

Anyhoo..the pictures of some of my corals... (Some I took under 20K light, and some under 10K)

WOW, VERY NICE!!! I can't wait for my decadia to get to that size.

Decadia is a slower grower. If you leave it alone, it may take you up to a year to be that big.

At the size mine is I think it'll take quite a bit longer than that.

What's the last sps? I love that, It has such an unusual color.

What is the new camera and what settings are you using?

The temporary ID is Acropora convexa.. but that I would have to confirm. The radial corallites are very small, so its more unique than other types of corallites.

The camera is a Nikon D70s, using Macro, ISO 500, Auto Focus (for now). Its quite easy to use, and there is a lot to play with.
