    My sump loves acans more than my display. The positive side to this, is I have a blue/white par38 bulb over these guys. I don't know if it's the lights or the lower flow, but they are starting to color back up from when I bought them.

    Just a couple of cell camera pics.

    Thank you! I bought this just for the colors and this was a while ago. I lost the colors, but it stayed healthy. Then I moved it back here and it's been getting better and better. I'm really excited about the colors!!

    I wish I knew a secret or anything... I can only offer what I think I'm doing right...
    The things I try and do when taking pictures is turn the flow off. No matter how many times I think, oh I don't need to turn this PH off, It'll be fine... It's usually not fine.
    Take pictures as parallel to the glass and straight onto the coral as possible. Now, this one sucks. I have corals that I just can't get a good picture because old man snell is refracting too much and it comes out looking like crap.

    I also need pointers on keeping Acans which you clearly are achieving!

    My camera shy tomini tang. He didn't know I was taking pictures when he swam up. He's silly.
