It was my first swap and was amazed at the number of people in attendence in Lansing. They plan on having it every year and was well organized.

I took some nice shots with my 35mm - fully manual camera - Minolta X700 with 70-300 lens. I used the telephoto lens (even though it didnt say macro), set the camera on tripod, had to be about 4 foot away, but with the zoom, I got relatively good focus. I then set the timer and didn't move until the photo was snapped. I got them devloped at Meijer w/ a photo CD. I'll post them here in the next day or two.

Here are the photos I took Monday with the 35mm...

The frogspawn



The LE Purple 'flower' monti plate


The orange ricordia. I like the blue in it too. Notice the mini green zoas to the left?



The green ricordia



The peach centered zoanthids.




These are some of the corals already in the tank...
GSPs... the lusher growth in the forefront is new growth. The thinner growth in the back is the orginal the I got from MWC.



My favorite zoanthids in the tank right now...
Green rim w/ peach middle and green/blue center. I got these from Preuss Pets in Lansing - and these were 'middle' range.. there were some really sweet ones that the sell but a little pricey for having a dumb name associated with them.
