Great looking tank. I also have to agree that the Yumas are beautiful.So you were able to get coraline on the over flow in seven days?

I've seen pics of that yellow Ric on another site once before (with the sponge) and loved it back then too...very nice.

What kind of camera are you useing? I'm looking to get a new one and you have some great macro shots.

Thats what I was wondering, cause it looked like the whole back wall was well seeded. Ca levels must be 1000+.

if your talking about the first two shots... they are both of my old aquariums. The new tank doesn't have any corraline yet.

Actually, most of those shots were taken with a simple little point-n-shoot. A Nikon S51 8.2 MGPX... I just made sure I found an easy camera with a decent macro setting and thats what it is.
