[mr_alberta]

Before the pics, some background:

Tank Specs
-37G Oceanic (24"x18"x21" or something like that)
-CSL Velocity T3 return split to 2x 3/4" SS
-2x 1" drain drilled at the back
-2x ~20G sumps/refugiums
-CPR Bak Pac
-~100lbs Fiji liverock, ~40lbs base rock split amongst all 3 tanks/tubs.

Lighting:
-1x 175W MH (10000K SA bulb) + 1x 65W PC actinic
(soon to be upgraded to 1x 250W MH (15000K CoralVue bulb)
-24" PFO parallel reflector

Fish/Other critters:
-2x False Percs (tank raised)
-1x Blue/Green Chromis (thanks to Beth)
-1x Yellow Watchman Goby

All pictures taken under the 175W MH only (no actinic). I appologize for the blueness of the pictures, but I can't seem to get them less blue even when I fiddle with my white balance...anyone have tips? I'm using a Fuji 3800 digi cam.

I like the look of your tank man!

Pics are a bit blue, hard to tell colour very well tho.

Hey thanks!

Yeah, I know the pics are too blue. Maybe I should just put a couple of 10000K PC on there just to take some pics...

Thanks for your comments though!

I've had the pleasure of seeing this tank in person The pictures don't do the tank justice.

Heya!

Thanks Jim. I've fiddled with the color balance in Photoshop. It should be a lot less blue and much more accurate as to what I actually see when I look into the tank.

Oh yeah, I'll have a stock of Xenia for you at the next meeting Jim

Great shots - that's a nice tank, you've obviously put a lot of work into it.
