Keep in mind, the iphone pics dont do these lights justice, it looks amazing in person


Here is what it looks like with the hood closed and the lid up

And what the fish see

Nice start, I also have a jbj 28 gallon cube. What are your plans for livestock?

I plan to get a Midas Blenny and a Tanaka's Pygmy Wrasee for the fish... then I want to get a cleaner shrimp, a t maxima clam and more corals... The ones on my def to get list: chalice, blasto, aussi dendro, and some cool poly's. But as we all know, this hobby can go its own way any time it wants to, so I cant really be sure what the end stock list will be

I just have a short update for you guys today...


So one of my acros - the green slimer seemed to start loosing a little color (my guess its too far from the top of the tank)


Here is the picture before

And after

So to help it out a bit, I moved it higher next to the tri color

Speaking of the tri color, its been doing really well in my tank since I got the frag, and has gotten a lot of it color back


Here is the picture when I first got it on 12/28/11

And the way it was earlier today (you can see the purple colors going a lot lower towards the bottom, in person its even more noticeable)

I also wanted to show how quickly my Captain America Palys are growing, I got these guys during the Thanksgiving weekend - 11/26/11


This is them when I just got it (2 polyps)

And earlier today

Also, just for giggles, I want to show off my Yumas in the new lighting

A close up

The other day at night one of the mushrooms closed on itself and it looked super crazy with the colors :shock:

And this is the same shot when I switched the lights on real quick
