Just had another look over your sps list and there it was blaring at me....... you have the mythic grafted simplex????? outstanding!! insane build through and through! hard to really take it all in at once lol.

Thanks Adam. I just cant take a pic to save my life. I am practicing and will get it figured out soon. At least the colors in the pics now are on. I will try and get a pic of the grafted simplex. It has been a unusually slow grower so far but has totally encrusted the plug and now on rock a bit so should start to sprout soon..

Tyree Grafted Simplex shot with actinic supplements

cant quite get the colors right on this one. The rim is actually more florescent green and new growth is blue with yellow tip

when I bought my new macro lens today I also purchased 2 hours of training for next week. Camera store will have expert come out to house and help me shoot the corals so hopefully I can figure this out

Hopefully I will get the curtain rail installed behind the tank soon and the ladder to feed behind the tank will not look like coral

As I always tell the wife, everything costs about $50.00 for the tank.:ballchain:

Thats perfect, my tank is 2/5ths your and ironically I tell my wife everything is 20.00 ( or it was a trade)

It had been a long time since I looked at your thread, long enough that at the time you didn't have it stocked yet-this is an incredible build and I'm envious of the quality.

Great job!!

LOL. In the 35+ years I have been reefing the prices have only gone from $15 bucks to $50 for the wife so she really likes the economics of the hobby.

Thanks for looking! If you are ever in Texas come see me. We love to have visitors that want to see the tank!!!!

Awesome pic! Amazing tank

 

[Laser]

playing with the camera finally got a decent shot I think of the RR Avengers Revenge Mother colony under full MH and LED lighting. This coral piece is on the far left of the tank and get very little light compared to most pieces I have. It has turned from BROWN when it was moved to some orange and slight light blue ends with bright yellow tips that cannot be seen unless above shot is taken.
OK still just a bit out of focus but getting closer

 

[Laser]

shot of some chalices this morning
finally getting little better with the pics. This one seems very close to actual eye color that I see. :target:

 

[Laser]

Shot of the RR Magic Wand with my new lens..getting a bit better with it as the colors are right on with what can be seen by the naked eye in my tank.
orange/pink tones turning more orange as it colors up

 

[Laser]
