Ian you are right, it is not the RL. It's the Reef Ready Grape Juice.

Thanks William. Yah, that picture makes the old tank look bigger. The same length and height just 12" wider.

Thanks Bryan. Yup, for whatever reason this is one coral that really grows fast for me. Just a few months ago it was two 1" brown sticks.

Ramzy, you inspired me to get off my fat a$$ but before I could get set up the halides went off. So I took a few actinic shots while I had the camera out.

Thanks Ramzy. Yes that is my PB. It's one of the most colorful corals in my tank. What type of issues are you having with yours?

You have an open invitation to come by with a laser pointer in hand. Bring the kids, they can jump into the pool while you teach me how to grow coral and use the damn camera.

Except I usually try to sneak out during their afternoon siesta When my Acros stop dying, I'll be sure to swing by for a chat.

It doesn't seem like you are having trouble with your camera. I like the growth pattern on your setosa. I wished mine would grow up more than just sideways.

Come on man. When I see picts that you, Mark and Pnoy put up I always wonder how you guys do it. I'm using a Canon Rebel XTI w/100MM macro on a tripod, in the AV mode, 200 ISO and an f-stop of 18 (I think). My picts don't look close to what you guys can do. At least I know that the problem is between the floor and the camera!
