This was shot using my iphone 4, terrible color of the coral but the anthias show up good! I've had them a little over a year now.

Beautiful.How big is your tank? How many Anthias and what kind you got there?
 
I guess you just post it when I was writing my post.
 
Looks great Zach!! Can we get an equipment list?
 
Thanks, I'll have to post some more recent videos that one was taken nov2010. My system is a little crazy but I love anthias & acros. I think the 2 key things that have given me anthias success are a large water volume and super high constant flow. Here's an equipment list:

140G Oceanic Starphire 2 overflows 48x24x30 Main Display
300G Rubbermaid Main Sump
75G AGA Refugium
100G Acrylic Frag Tanks x2
Reeflo Hammerhead Gold Main Pump (This runs everything except skimmer)
ETSS 2500XR with Reeflo Marlin Pump
57 Watt UV Sterilizer
Aquacontroller 3
44G Rubbermaid Kalkstirrer/Topoff
BRS Jumbo Reactor x2 (1 for carbon, 1 for Rowaphos)
