    Man I love this tank! Everytime I read through this thread I find something cool that I had not noticed before. You have done a great job. It just looks so natural, like nothing was ever placed in the tank, it's just been their!

    Thanks for the comments. I do try to make it as natural looking as possible for my coral placements. As far as my camera, I use a Canon Rebel XSI. It's nice, but I'm still working at getting the correct colors to show up under daylight conditions.

    Well they look great! ;) I have a Nikon p90. Couldn't afford an slr. If I could I wanted the Nikon D3000.

    Not sure how I missed your build thread past few years GM!

    subscribed now. It's a great build (just read whole thing) and your SPS growth is awesome.

    I've finally gotten my tank to where I want it. I'm still have a little issues with maintaining my alk and Ca, but I've been focusing on those. I've actually kind of had a mini revival in the way I look at the hobby. I've started to focus now on husbandry, stability and prevention. I've started dipping my corals before adding them to my tank. I've gotten really lucky in the past years, but decided to start taking preventative measures. I've really focused on keeping corals I really want and not buying any coral I see like I used to. And I've been focusing on maintaining a clean and healthy tank.
