When it is 4 inches from the desk end glass it is very distracting!
Led only morning during a short "green" phase.

I don't lol!
I observe my little reef rock pool, document it a bit, take pictures of the beautiful animals and fish in there and I spend a lot of time reading and learning on the interweb!
I work a five day week when I think about the tank a lot, bills have to be paid, any "off" time is generally spent with the tank.

I have had this eshinata for over a year, I moved it 2 inches yesterday.
This morning is the first time I have seen it with feeders out with the lights on!

I love the perspective of this shot.

I'm also bit jealous of the work schedule!

Dis Waltney hasn't shown much colour for about a year, except the base flesh, it has 3 or 4 patches showing colour now, it is growing great, it can take as long as it wants to colour up properly!

Edit, don't forget this was my £5 rescue frag, 3 inch piece now!

This starts to be a gem and gonna make a fortune. Lucky you.

Some day when it grows a bit someone will say "oh, that's just an *insert name*!"

Placed these a couple of hours ago, there is a strong possibility I will bleach them a touch, I will be watching tomorrow!

Ok, catch up on yesterday, had a great day, got very little done!

I had to move the ssc as the zoas have gone ballistic since being fragged.
It's new spot is just behind the anacropora, pic later once the lights are up fuller.

... yes it is a little camera hog!

New piece from a couple of weeks ago, desk view, settling well and slowly colouring up.
The millie I got is also settling well, desk view again, most of it is behind the horizontal acro.

I have some rasta frags to deliver later, the frag trays will be being perused!

 

[najer]

The 7 rasta frags made this 5 - 6 inch cultured piece £12!
I have seen some lovely red acros (don't ask, no idea) in journals recently, this was in my lfs today.
It is a gorgeous shape, here for a pic, you won't be able to see it from the front once placed!

It's getting nice and colourful in there.
Nice new acro with an interesting potential.

The long nose hawkfish will be your mascot no matter how hard you try to deny it. He's in like 3/5 pictures

 

[najer]

Thanks all lol, replies after work, not sure if it is a red dragon or not.

 

[najer]

I’m closer ! Lol

Any time dude, you pay the post the frag will be a gift.

Is That a red Dragon ?

I did a lot of reading in quiet moments in work today Fadi, A carduus, it seems to be a good colour so far and the skin is a bit of a give away!

Thanks, name above, pic to follow, now on a 2 week count down to "it was dead before you got it probably mate" date!

Gorgeous little camera hog!

Absolutely (pretty much) zero change in colour today, Red Dragon, A carduus, it is already the centre piece of my desk view, as mentioned, you can't see it from the front unless you look down and sideways at an angle!

DSC_0004 by sshipuk, on Flickr

 

[najer]

I can't leave it there!
Excuse the angle, this is taken with me reclined in my desk chair.
Because I have been looking for ages for something to fill that spot, no pressure!

Just Make sure That you put it in the highest flow and light location in your tank. As it grows it will be hard for flow to reach the inside of the colony and they tend to STN from the inside and slowly spread until all is dead.
