I know it's not HD, but one of my first tries at it.
I just got back from Gustavis Alaska , a fun filled week of fishing Halibut and salmon.
So my tank needs some weeding of algea and aptasia. But I used my wifes camera we took on vacation and thought I would try the video.

Your tank has always been one of my favorite. How many fish u have in there?
 
Amazing reef! Beautiful fish! Thanks for sharing!! :D
 
Nice video Brad. And jealous of the fishing trip - would love to see some pics from that trip.

Quick question, do you keep a mesh top on your tank to keep all of those wrasses in the tank? And what is the name of that wrasse that has the yellow tail - looks to have white spots all over? Awesome wrasse!

Thanks Craig, Yes I do have a mesh top with 1/4 holes. The only way to keep wrasses in the water. The one wrasse that you are asking about is a Yellowtail Tamarin wrasse. And by the way D/D is putting one up right now as we speak.
I'll post some pictures of my trip to alaska soon. Our largest Halibut we caught was just over 275lbs
 
I got around to getting a few of my Alaska trip pictures downloaded and thought I would post a few.

I look worn out already. LOL

Nice vid, Brad. The tank looks great!! I love the mix...SPS, LPS, and fish...
 
Nice pics Brad. Thanks for posting. Really need to make it up to Alaska one of these days! That 175lb'er is unreal! I've never seen anything quite like that....
 
That was the 175lber Craig.
The 275 lber we let go and made the other fish look like a juvenile. I was praying not to get a big fish like that. :wink:
 
Looks great as always Brad! I need to stop by and see your tank again, I'm adding a few new wrasses this week, and possibly another angel...
 
Thanks for sharing!! I live in Monterey Bay, I one cough a 35 pound Halibut, it was crazy to pull up.
 
Brad,
Thank you so much for sharing that. I love a nice mixed reef tank and yours is awesome. Great fish as well. I think you tank is an inspiration for many to strive for as well. It is always nice to see one contributing to the forum too. you just flat out rock and so does that tank!

Nice Brad! Your tank has always been an Insperation and one of my favorites (Probably because of all the Wrasses ;) )
