Correction, you WEREN'T an anemone guy.

As I'm on the waiting list for a magnifica? We may need to stop hanging out.

Does that mean I need to swallow a live chromis?

Three salvageable macros out of a ton and one 35mm shot of the gang. So right now I'm banking on just pure volume and luck.

Great shots. I love the last one of all the fish. Way back when, I was quite into photography. I was told by a pro that he hoped for one good shot out of a roll of 36.

Thanks Fred. I'm so glad I'm learning in the world of digital photography. I'm at a ratio of 1 good one for 100.

That saves me a lot of money on film and developing.

Trouble... Got my Avast Marine Top-down Porthole for my macro lens. 1st day of shooting.

Nice shots but what is the coral in the top photo of the last group?
Looks amazing.

Thanks Reefmutt! Hopefully they'll get better! I was free hand shooting those but I'll try again with a tripod the next time around.

Its the Cherry Corals Habanero Anacropora. I love it!

Picture dump! Shot under T5s with actinic bar supplement.

Thanks! One of the 5 will surely eat any LPS if I had any others than the torch and gonis.

FarmerTy · 03/23/2018, 01:53 PM

Also, just realized all my photos have been downcoverted when I transferred them to my phone to post! I need to post the full versions!

At least in my tank. I can say they'll eat any zoas and fleshy LPS for the most part but I'm just generalizing since I have 5 different angels. Some are worse offenders than others.

FarmerTy · 03/28/2018, 06:11 PM

Still honing in techniques for taking macro shots... Well... And also using a DSLR since that's new to me too.

FarmerTy · 03/30/2018, 08:05 AM

I call this the factory. Where all my frag acquisitions grow out into mini colonies before putting them in my tank.

topjimmy · 03/30/2018, 10:01 AM

I'll be sending you some of mine to grow out.
