Hi.

I am new to the forum, but not as new to the hobby.

3 years ago I started with a 29g fo.

Then fowlr.

Then fowlr and 1 coral plus new lights.

Then...

 

Currently the 29g houses a pair of mated Clarkii's with the first anemone I bought 2 1/2 years ago.

They spawn every ten days with an 8 day hatching cycle.

The anemone has outgrown the 29g at this point.

 

I also have a 56g reef--mostly softies, 75lbs lr with 2 scarlet cleaners, a mated pair of A. ocellaris and a juvenile Centropyge potteri. And Moe, the lone blue Chromis.

 

I am almost finished setting up the 100g w/30g sump/refuge--should be up and running in 2-3 days.(clap)

 

I look forward to meeting some of you at this afternoons meeting.

 

There is a link to my "homepage" in my profile--I think. (not so web saavy)

Wow, you take some amazing photographs. Care to share any tips? :) What sort of equipment are you using?

 

I really like the cleaner shrimp picture. Your focal length is really good. I can never seem to get that much of mine in focus even if I stop down a lot.

for every good photo, I have about 50 not so good ones--gotta love digital!

Been getting good results using a Micro 60mm on a tripod.

What are you using?

I've got a nikon d80 and my best pics so far have come from the sigma 17-70 macro lens that I have for it. It won't do 1:1, though, but I like that its variable and not prime. Really I just need to spend more time on it, cause, like you said, 1 in 50 or so are decent :P I really like that pod shot!
