Some new pics with some slight white balance changes with some new software I got from Flynnstone. Thanks Jeff!

Some updated pics... Some are blue, some are raw with grey card, and some have had the auto fix applied. Still learning the software.

Wow, some of those are really neat!
They all appear to be in excellent health.

Some beautiful corals there.

Thanks for the kind comments! I am very fortunate to have such a healthy collection. I'm still working on the camera skills, but I'll get there. I plan on purchasing a new macro lense near the holidays. I should have even better pics then.

I've seen this first hand and these pics don't do the setup justice. It's amazing.

Thanks, Jeff! It was a pleasure having you over. I'm still working on the quality of the pics. I'll have a new set closer to christmas. I'll pick up a new macro lense when they go on sale. Hope your enjoying the corals!

I was taking some actinic shots this afternoon. The growth has really picked up. My GEO 6x24 Calcium Reactor is not able to keep up with the calcium demand so I have to dose Calcium Chloride at a rate of .75ml every 20 minutes. The no live rock and no sand method seems to be working well for me. Hope you enjoy the pics.

This coral has a white to green base, blue tips, and is just starting to develop pink polyps. The pink is only on a couple polyps and is very hard to get on camera. Its only at the base of the polyp right now.

Very nice man! This has gotta be the second best frag system I have seen....and the first best I have seen is no longer running.
