I've been around for a little bit and have finally gotten my tank to where I want it. Thought I'd post a FT shot or two since I've stocked with stuff from a lot of you guys.

I've done a few mods to the tank. Added a 900MJ to the return. Took at the stock PC lighting and added a dual dimmable LED kit from RapidLED.com. Went with 6 Royal Blue, 6 Cool White and added in 2 Green and 2 Purple. Also added their moonlight kit.

I'm on week three with the LEDs and I'm pretty happy so far. The zoas are sprouting babies left and right. Seeing some really nice polyp extension on my Duncans.

I'm also keeping a weekly photo to see how much if any the LEDs contribute to growth.

Just a couple closer shots of some of the zoas/palys I'm growing out.

Oh, I also picked up a pair of platinums from a guy a little more local to me. I got an great price if anyone is interested let me know. I told him I'd spread the word. I believe he's going to start shipping soon.

This guy has a cool little spot on his rear dorsal that really stands out.

This guy glows baby blue from the black markings underneath. I'll try to catch a better picture in a few days.

WOW thats a great looking nano! Those Clowns look awesome, sure would be intrested if your friend started selling more.
 
First off, I want to let you guys know he's in Peoria before you get all excited. However, he said he was going to start shipping soon.

The spawning pair were two very pretty Picasso's that had an Onyx in their lineage. Almost all of his babies had a ton of black showing up. Made for some really unique patterns.

If anyone wants his name and e-mail I'd prefer you PM'd me. I don't think he would mind me posting it, but better safe than sorry. I don't mind telling you what I paid, but I have no idea if he is keeping his pricing the same.
 
Finally got around to playing around with my DSLR. Should have done this a lot sooner. Let me know what you guys think

I won this at the MACI Marine Geeks raffle. I have no idea what kind of chalice it is, but it was for sure hungry.

Should have entered this into the polyp extension POTM contest. That's about an inch longer than normal.

I know they're common, but they look so cool sometimes. Dragon Eyes

This was my first effort. Took a little time to get the color right, but this is as close to what my eye saw as possible. I'm not a photoshop guy so that might be my next learning experience.
 
Turned this into primarily a Sps tank a while back after picking up a few cool pieces. This red stag from FragFarmers is finally starting to color up and take a look at that polyp extension. Took the opportunity to broadcast feed some azox.
