Last day to enter this month's competition. The prize is a R2R Premium membership and an XXL R2R shirt. In private conversations with Rev, he tells me this will be a new shirt. Typically, when Rev gives out shirts, they are garments that he has worn while mowing the lawn or cleaning house so they need to be washed upon receipt. But this time it's an actual new shirt without any grass stains or the smell of Windex, so this one is worth winning. Get your videos together and posted today!

This video was created with 2600+ still frame shots, each with 2592x1728 pixels on my Canon 7d. A frame is taken every 1 second for about 45 minutes. FOr a time reference, that is a snail on the left of the frame. Im post processing it was strung together at 29 frames per second. Under actinic lighting and little comor correction. That left me with a clip longer than I wanted so i further compressed the video to meet the 30 second rule. Since each photo was 2592x1728, it actually had to be compressed DOWN to fit the 1080p HD. The pump is off in the tank during the first 28seconds of the video, then pump is turned on. I fed mysis shrimp and then you will see marine snow. This favia eats it up. I hope you enjoy the video!

Horrible quality, but its a vid of the natural feeding response of my old Fu Manchu Lionfish YouTube - Fu-man chu lion feeding response

This 30-31 second thing seems to be universal and my knowledge of video is that you watch it, so I'm going to allow 31 sec. 32 sec. or longer will be disqualified.

Cool I feel better! Thanks Gary!

very nice videos

Mine says 30 sec but when you hit play it says 29, I had it at 30 sec. It won't be disqualified for being too short will it? Its the same as the other but in reverse.
