This is because DJ88 upgraded to a 400W 10,000K, right? Or am I thinking of someone else.

Darren, tell us how you take your pictures so that they don't appear overexposed. Got any tank photographing tips you'd like to share? [img]smile.gif[/img]

Tony. the colors were coming out witht eh 250W Iwasaki. But they are more enhnaced with the 10KK. Pretty much everything went brown during the change over. So I am happy. [img]smile.gif[/img] one of my scrolling montis has deep blue polyps now. The big greenish one on the left. New blues and purples all over the other corals. [img]smile.gif[/img]

As for taking pics. Right now I just put my coolpix on auto and let it take the shots. I am too lazy. ;)

For the macros and such I always use a tripod.

Nice pics Darren. Are these before or after the partial tear down and clean up?

After.. [img]smile.gif[/img] I like how it is now. I used what LR rubble I had to make all kinds of pod piles in the back and enough caves for the gramma and cardinal to be happy.. Works for me. [img]smile.gif[/img]
