I was wondering if you have ever seen a gold/yellow acan? I never have so i thought this was a pretty good piece to add to my small acan collection.

In the fishstore this acan looked kinda metallic brown,under like 70w HL, so i bought it thinking it would look nice under my evolution,well im come home and BAM this thing is green rim, gold/yellow body,and green and gold mouths!

Only blues tonight,daylight 2mrw

There are a few people who have them..Really nice acans. I wouldn't go to say they are as available as some of the other morphs out there though.

Yea i can see you have had a few FS threads pop up in the past few weeks. Thats weird to not be able to handle the blue. What DSLR are you looking at?

Yea, I can handle some of the blue,but not all. I have the white balance set,but the picture you see are most of the time the best you can get with this particular camera...

I wanted a t2i originally,but i really really like the 7d,especially the neat focus feature it has, and i know the 7d is almost double the cost of the t2i,but if i got the t2i and then wanted the 7d it would cost me more in the end...So im shooting for the 7d.

Shoot for the stars. When you get in the 1100-1200 range i can give you a web site where they go used from time to time in that range.
