I have wanted to start a thread over here in sps land because that is the part of reefing that passionately holds my interest throughout 15 years in the hobby. I started with the basic starter corals but eventually found my way to acro land. Twice I had to reduce my involvement in my tanks due to life circumstance ; so I would try to change over to less demanding corals just to keep the tanks active. I was glad that I stayed involved and kept the tanks wet but acans and zoos did not satisfy my itch.
My pictures in my past thread were very low quality and were very hard on the eyes. My cell phones apparently do not take good pics. Even I am disappointed when I look at my thread after seeing the incredible sps systems in this forum. Though my acros may not be world class, I have thought they were better looking then my photos show and deserved a better effort on my part.
A friend of mine and his wife have a real camera and skills to know how to use it. They came over and took pics that even though they are raw and unedited, they are a thousand times better then anything I have done.
This would be a good time to start a thread with pics that are pretty close to what I see in person. A shade or two off in places but overall accurate. Also, I have given away almost all of my Lps with a few exceptions, mostly chalice.
A few Pics then I will describe the set up.
