On another note I love your tang!
haha... thanks.. I don't take many pics of the foxface, because he is usually cowering in a corner.. They are such timid fish..

You'd have to upgrade your skimmer for sure!

I'm sure Starfire glass would make a huge difference with that, hence why I'm getting it on my big tank..

Having troubles keeping up with fishytime and all his photo updates, so I went through the tank last night and shot every single coral I got... Actually I just got bored last night while my buddy recorded my tank for a video he wants to put together (like the one in fishytimes sig) Here's the first batch... Next batch coming soon (whenever I get around to them)..

Also changed my MH bulbs this weekend... I switched from the Ushio 14K's to the Ushio 20K's... Taking a bit to get use to the change, but I think I will prefer it over time. We'll see!



From the Red Coral Frag Sale:


Been eyeing this Favia at Red Coral for quite awhile... Finally picked it up:








Coral Master "Killer Cerealis" Frag...


Not sure what this is.. but I'm excited to see how it grows:


Another Coral Master Frag "Skyberry Stag"

Thanks Lawrence!...

Couple more from last nights impromptu shoot...

FTS with the new 20K look:


And an FTS from the last few days of the 14K look:


More Coral pics!

These golden zoos look even better under 20K..






Into the SPS...


This Enchino looks fantastic under 20K IMO:


I can never seem to get a good shot of this Mille... but whatever.


Coral Master "Rainbow Stylo" Frag.. Turned more pinkish in my tank, but hoping it comes around.


Green Mille Frag from fishytime!!


Not very often I get a clear shot of my torch without a Clown sticking his nose/tail into frame.. Got lucky lastnight:

I know! I was a little stunned at first when I saw the difference... Never thought I would like the 20K look in my own tank, but everything looks better to me! F'n Love it! Might switch out the Gmann Actinic+ for a KZ Fiji Purple tho..
