Thanks
Cannon A200. Certainly not the top of the line, but with the technology changing as fast as it is right now, I don't dare get the latest greatest. Hopefully today I will figure out how to get smaller images that are higher quality. I will post more.

Hey Reed! I agree with Paul...love the open rock work. Your tanks looks great and you did a good job with the camera.
Endo- Aiptasia is a requirement for TRT postings

Thanks for the kind words everyone! The rockwork almost had to be open because the tank is a room divider (therefor no stacking against a wall of the tank is allowed). I realy like the way it turned out though and can definitely testify to the benefit of being able to run a magnetic scraper across the entire glass face.

Hey Reed ... It's about time we get to see your tank. Looks great. And I will have to also agree on the aquascaping, I like that arch you have in the middle ...
Nice job.

Beautiful tank Reed. Love the open holes and arch for the fish to swim in and out of.

Oh yeah coming from someone who loves the art of aquascaping! Great looking reef! Digital camera is the only way to go and I am still learning with mine(Nikon 990 cool pix).

I sound like a broken record , but thanks again! Chuck, you aught to recognize almost every coral in that tank, since they are almost all frags from your tank (Thank you!).

Hey Reed ... I do recognize some of those pieces. Glad to hear they are doing well  Keep up the good work. How are those nitrate issues, have they been resolved yet?

Hey Chuck. All but one of the frags are growing well. One of acro frags bleached pretty quickly (Don't really know what went wrong there).
My nitrates are coming down  . I tested yesterday and they are down to 25ppm (Yes that is 25ppm) from 100ppm. So I think I am winning the battle. Hopefully they will continue to drop to a reasonable level.
Thanks for asking.
Power went out for 13 hours yesterday. I've never been so worried about a tank in my life. I feel like a parent must feel
