Goniopora - red flower pot. Much easier than it's green cousin. This one is growing at an astounding rate. It started about the size of a quarter...now about like a large grapefruit.

Lighting - T5. One 6 bulb 54 watt Tek Light fixture. One 4 bulb 54 watt Tek Light.

As for the FTS -

Hi Rendos, Can you tell me what your photography set up is? I considered myself a pretty good photographer until I tried to capture my tank set-up. Lights on, lights off, special lenses ... what do I need? Right now I am trying to ID at least 4 crab hitchhikers. I have tried my Nikon D60 and a Casio Exilim 8.1 point and shoot but haven't found the recipe for compensating for water, glass, reflection, etc. Any help would be appreciated.
Your tank is very nice.
Thanks,

Great looking tank and pictures.

Any advice on the picture taking as asked above would be appreciated by a lot of us on this board.

I really don't do anything special for photos.
I clean the glass (really important). I use a Canon EOS Rebel (the first generation 6.3 MP). I use the standard lens for the most part. I use all manual settings, and manual focus so the camera doesn't try to focus on something that I didn't mean for it to. I don't even use a tripod. I just hold the camera really steady, I guess.
Sorry I couldn't help more.

War coral is almost in the sand on the left side of the tank. It gets very little flow. It is a very fast grower.
