John's 75 planted new plant photo 4-20-13

That is really cool, and pretty.

I wonder if they have pollen?

 

Thanks Cheryl, my thoughts exactly. I am pretty certain there is pollen.

 

Another FTS of the planted tank. I have done a good job of getting the colors close to how it looks under the lights. This is a 6 shot panorama.

Teach me your ways!

Looking awesome!

I may have missed it, but what camera and lens are you using?

 

Your tank is outstanding. I wish My wife would let me set up another tank, but I think I've pushed my luck far enough

 

Thank you, I use pressurized CO2, 156W of T5HO light for 10 hours a day, and dose lots of iron, potassium and micro nutrients. I get nitrate and phosphate from fish food and use RODI that I reconstitute with minerals so it can support life.

My camera is a Canon 7d and the lens I used is the EF-s 17-55mm f/2.8 IS.

Exposures were at 55mm focal length, aperture f/5.6, ISO 800 and 1/60 sec shutter speed. Processing was done in DxO Optics Pro 8 and the shots were stitched in Photoshop Elements 11.

Thank you Jason. You have more water in your reef system than I have in all 4 of my tanks. Lots of money and time tied up in that large of a reef.

 

Thanks so much for all the info!

 

Awesome, I like how you have a back wall of plants. Any thoughts on some kind of carpet? Or do you like the open substrate?

 

Excellent job with the tank!

 

Thanks

Actually I like the open substrate.

Thank you
