Here is an awesome place to start, as you can find very good online tutorials. How to Make Great Photographs http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/howto.htm How to Get Great Colors http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/color.htm Why Your Camera Does Not Matter...

Congratulations Eddie!!!! You couldn't have picked a better camera for the job and I bet you will be very happy with the performance of this camera. I have the same exact model: Nikon D70S with several lenses and I can tell you that you can get stunning results from this baby. I can recommend...

Mike, First of all, congratulations on the RK2! I'm sure you will love the new features, and how smooth this new unit operates. I love mine and find myself using the manual overide quite often. I think for now, since you already the holes drilled in the wall, it would be convenient to...

Great idea to use the remote satellite holder to mount the RK controller. Thanks for sharing, it's a neat idea indeed.

Apparently customers will be able to update RK2's firmware when new software features are released, but I don't think the new version is out yet. The serial cable adapter is included with the RK2 system and the firmware update program will be available for free download whenever new software is...

What a sweet project you have been putting together Mike. I had missed this thread in the "Nano – 20 and under" section, and it has kept me entertained for a while reading the first page. I love the style of Tru-Vu aquariums, and how versatile this tank really is. Thumb up for the equipment...

Ed, This place is part of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and as a result, the reefs that we visit are now under heavier protection, and are already showing great benefits from this protection. Many of the most sensitive, healthiest reefs are now protected as Sanctuary...

I would have submitted this one, only if I could enter the contest. Macro shots have a very limited subject area, and tank size really doesn't matter, but I currently only have a 75 gallon setup.

Nicely done Mike! After all this battle fighting the epidemic from every possible and imaginable angle, now it's time finally time to sit down and enjoy the reef. Congratulation Mike!!!!!! You deserve an award for husbandry and care for you reef! :thumbup:

Hey reefers, This weekend I went in a snorkeling trip in the Florida Keys Reef Tract, which is the only living coral barrier reef in North America, and is the 3rd largest coral barrier reef in the world. This reef is absolutely amazing with warm, crystal clear water from the Gulf Stream just...

hehehe, That's certainly a good teaser Mike... I'm certainly curious and all I can say is that regardless of what it is, I'm so happy you're back into the world of nano tanks.

Mke, I used a 50W Finnex Titanium Heater for my 6 gallon cube, which performes flawless and it's very accurate. I still use it to stabilize water temperature for my water changes. I also own the MarineLand 50 watt stealth, which I use in my quarantine tank, and I consider one the best...

Abarnswell, I'm having the same problem in my refugium, where my caulerpa has gone sexual this week and it had a big impact in my reef. The natural life cycle of most species of Caulerpa falls within three to six months and it finally started to go bad, after four months my tank has been...

Skipm, Thanks for hurricane backup plan recommendations. Those pumps really seem to be way better than the ones I used last season, and hopefully this year I won't have to use them at all. ehehehe Mike, I've been living in Florida for 15 years now, and I can tell you from experience...

WOW, Nice to see some shots of your tank again Mike. Man, that purple coraline algae looks awesome, covering your rocks almost entirely. It seems like the husbandry, along with the ozone and UV treatment is slowly catching up with those evil parasites, and it really looks like your fish...
