Excellent shot of a lovely fish.

I keep fish too. Not marine tho - I breed gold pearly viel tailed tropical angels. I'm thinking of selling a few to some acquariums. I also breed plants. Tommorrow I am off to collect some drift wood to plant with Java Moss. I'm gunna see if I can sell them too. Alas, I have but 5 tanks. Lol.

Couple of great shots, btw. I do need to get some new tank shots done soon. Maybe today...hmm.

Just for my knowledge, how do you take tank shots? I figure the glass has to be pretty clean

Check the link I posted a couple posts up. It's a how-to that I wrote awhile back. (I run the photography forum at reefs.org , a reefkeeping discussion board.)

The new tank sounds awesome!! Can't wait to see it develop!

My tank has kind of been on hold recently while I pour extra money into photography equipment. Just spent a few hundred on new lens and bag, and getting ready to order a flash bracket and sync cord. The tank has been suffering as a result. It's slowly on the upswing now though, so I'll have to start adding more stuff to it soon. Need to find some hard corals that will do well under VHO.
