Well I guess it about time I added another full tank shot.
Not much happening lately, been kinda tied up with the main display rebuild.
I had to remove the pink milli frag I had on the top rock, it was starting to bleach out from the base up.
Anyways, here it is for this month.

great shots of your tank, it really makes a difference on how we perceive your tank. i love that the chalice is front and center on the end shot.

Thanks for the nice comments.

Yes those are duncans, started with 1 head, now theres 23.

That chalice is my favorite piece....pics just dont do it justice.
I had another piece of it, so I fragged it and now the frags are all slowly losing flesh....hopefully a couple will survive ( some members here where hoping to get some).

i dont blame them, i would want a piece if i could get my hands on one. i got out for a little while because i moved and lost mostly everything so i didnt want to set it back up now im setting up a 25G and slowly make my way to a 40 or 50G breeder tank, with a unique twist. what kind of camera are you using?? and on what settings? just curious do you have actinics on your tank? maybe get a shot of that if you could for us.

thanks for the great comments!!

I do have an actinic bulb in my fixture...only problem is all the bulbs are controlled by one cord/timer. I also have a pink bulb in there as well but I think I'm gonna replace it with another actinic, that should light up the duncans and hammer a little more.
