amazing tank! I have never had any luck with sticks , and always thought it was because I didnt dose properly or have a doser set up, or a calcium reactor. Your tank growth and colors are an inspiration to a fellow 2 part hand doser.

How is the tank doing? Do you have photos of any new cool acros? How is the Rowaphos experiment going?

Regarding the photos: You can improve the white balance significantly by buying something cheap like a filter such as this: (12 Colors Camera Speedlite Flash Gel Velcro Filter Colour Correction Card Photo | eBay) and place in front of your phones camera. The item I linked have several colours...you need the yellow/orange ones...it will cut a lot of the blue and improve the white balance greatly. I ordered one for my Iphone (which comes out with VERY blue images at the moment).

It has been a while since I've updated my thread so I figured I'd take a few photos. Still thinking about adding a calcium reactor. I have my apex all set up and a big shout out to their support guys, they were a huge help in getting me connected to my network and fixed problems that I would have had no idea how to even find.
