Thanks Eddy.

Still havent seen my new lense yet but I'm not gonna let that stop me from taking some pics ;-) For some reason the halide makes all the pics come out darker than they are.

Here's some zoos.

Thanks guys. Here's a pic I took this morning. Many corals still havent opened but I'm bored.

 

[ripcurrent]

one of my favorite zoos.

 

[EDGRAY]

one of my favorites too and i bet alot of zoanthids lovers thing the same....

 

[ripcurrent]

Yeah those are pretty nice. They just grow soooo slow though. I'm experimenting with some Iodine though and growth seems to be improving.

I added a couple new pieces. I dont have pics of everything but here's a couple updates.
Green skirts w/ some scattered oranges in there.

Rainbow Yumas. Hoping that the halide liven's em up a bit. THey've been under PC's.

Little neon green tipped frogspawn eating some brine shrimp

DIfferent variation of green skirts

more green florida rics.

pic doesnt do justice oranges

red shrooms with some sort of debris on it

I have two of these blue shrooms. Not a great pic but you can at least see the color.

I also got some purple and pink yumas that I'll post pics of here pretty soon.

Thanks for looking.

You have alot of brightly colored corals in there, how about a full tank shot when you get a chance. Where are you getting all of the bright corals?

 

[djconn]

Those rics are amazing! WOW

 

[ripcurrent]

I'm not sure how I get em... lol!

I guess I blame it on being obsessed with this stuff. I'm always browsing boards and networking and every once in awhile I'm able to find pieces that I like.

Thanks Dj!

They look like actinic shots...what kinda lighting do you have? Nice zoas by the way.

[ripcurrent]

I dont even have actinics only a 70 watter 14k.

 

[reefman23]

Very cool. I have that 70 watt 14k too... I really like it. That with my 50/50 compacts have a real crisp white light with a light tint of blue. Great tank!

Jesse

 

[skipm]

I never would have guessed that was a single 14k light over those corals, the colors absolutely pop!

 

[ripcurrent]

Yeah some of em are pretty bright.

The bulb is also being overdriven on a 100 watt ballast which makes the color quite a bit more blue.

Sorry for the long delay with my response. I've been in the hospital with my wife and brand new baby boy! :mrgreen:

 

[skipm]

Congratulations on the new baby.

 

[ripcurrent]

Thanks Skip! THis is our first and it is really an exciting time!

Here Evan is with uncle Tyler... my little brother.
