How do you get rid of the blues in the pictures
I don’t have any blues in the pictures so I don’t know!

Simon @najer might have an answer, but he also has a fancy camera and of course it also depends if your tank lights are blue.

I don’t take pictures in the evening, when the tanks blue, because normally I can’t speak let alone take pictures!! Lol

This, blues kill most phone cameras and my Nikon hates blues so I also don't take pics in the evening for Shaun's last reasoning! ;)

Can you share your light schedule? Are you using mobius? So far I’m not fond of mobius. Ecotech apps haven’t been the greatest lol
Mine are controlled by Apex and the WXM module as below for the majority of the day if that helps

And before you ask, the only par I know about is on the golf course, and it’s very infrequent!!

If only deeez yout would listen, they could skip 30 years of wasting money straight to waking up with a glass of red wine spilled on their crotch to a virtually unwatched film. ;)

Shaun, I need to fly over and see your tank. While doing so, I NEED to also be able to drive your hobby car. ;) ;Happy

Thank you for the guidance on the Abyzz.

I was looking at going with a Abyzz A400, and you were steadfast on the performance of a A200.

Yes no problem , let me have your flight details, I’ll clear the spare room, unlock the garage, and pick you up from the airport……! Lol

Ill even throw in a snorkel and face mask so you can get in the tank….. and kill some of those flipping Aiptasia, that I cant reach (because it’s very deep!)

And your more than welcome!

Although still very young and virile, I had cataract surgery yesterday on my right eye, and today I went for the post op check up and ‘unveil’ with ‘the professor’.

It was done under local anaesthetic (because us brits are big and brave you know……) although I did have a mild sedative tablet to calm me down so I didn’t run off or start screaming like a girl!

For anyone in a similar position needing this surgery, go and do it, and don’t worry, unless its being done by your dentist on the side!!

All I can say is OMG! (i did have an F in this but it’s been removed! Lol) It’s like seeing in 4k HD again, and the tanks look absolutely amazing. I’m sat here looking at them both, amazing …….

My other left good eye, is being done in about 6 weeks but it feels like I’m dragging some old eye around with me the difference is so amazing.

So with my eye sight regained, and now I can see, I need to address an Aiptasia issue, because, well, I can now see them!

The problem with a big tank, and its very big, is you can’t always reach the bottom so although I’ve been using the RS Aiptasia X which works, I just cant reach the majority of the problem

I added 8 Berghia last year, but they are so just expensive in a tank this size, but anyway needs must, so I’ve just ordered another 20, after agreeing (sorry begging!) for a discount!

i am gonna start a berghia farm.
That's like a gold mine at 15 quid a piece.
I know Jan, they gave me a discount so they were around £11 but it still adds up!

But, needs must so….

‘She’s’ grown a little… How do I know its a ‘she’, well because with a face so pretty, it couldn’t be a ‘he’!

The first picture is about 1 1/2 inches long, the second is around 6 inches

Do you have tongs or anything to help reach the bottom. I’m looking for something but haven’t found much that looks worthy.
Hi been away for a week or so but this is what I use
