I forgot… Prices over here are different.
Lunatus is currently high double to low treble digits over here. Shutmani is mid treble digits.
Still waiting for a shutmani to emerge over here though… Fingers crossed I find one and the lubbocki’s don’t care. Why go for just a small patch of red on a fish when you can go all out hey?
I did get mine for $65 which apparently is a complete steal.

I hope you do get the shutmani as they are stunning and I've never seen one. The only wrasse I was tempted on today was Anampses caeruleopunctatus which unfortunately was not healthy enough for me to get. Such a wishlist fish though!

That fungia is a beauty
Thanks! It glows a very bright peach that the camera did not pick up.

Like I say, photo and award worthy
Definitely profile picture worthy!
This Angel is a beauty, now it’s just waiting for the transition to finish which will hopefully be a few months if not a year.

Do you still have that other filter ;)
I bet they would look incredibly toxic!
Well here you go.....
What 60$ wasted dollars looks like:

No filter:

Yellow filter:

Orange filter:

Both filters:

Bonus FTS with both:

If you do filters you usually still have to adjust the white balance.

Agreed, I just have to add some white light.
I just set my white balance to 7500k.

Definitely not perfect but decent results. My orange glasses make everything look weird in auto mode and in manual mode I still have to adjust the white balance up to 4350k.

Nice!
Yeah the filters work all right on the phone camera but with low tech Cannon it hasn't worked. I'll try messing with the white balance though.
