Thanks and no it is actually Shades of fall i picked up as a tiny frag. Probably one of my favorite pieces in my tank as the polyps get pretty long on it and it looks awesome in the motions of the tank (that is with a little help from Steve and his miracle Polyp Extension juice)!

Man that's beautiful, I need to get a frag of that!

Ya'll using Pohls for that extra polyp extension?

I, too, have the Sony A700. I bought it last November. I have not spent enough time with it apparently because my shots Never look as wonderful as do yours!I do love the camera though. Just need to aquaint myself with all it can do.
Incredible pictures...inspiration!

Send me a box and shipping back and i will gladly send you small piece if you want! He recommended me a product by Zeovit which makes the polyps of SPS LOOOOOOOOONG. Check his thread under Pnoy Cube, i think he told me the name in there.

I dont use a Macro yet and i havent even touched the settings. This is just done with automatic and a 16-105 lens. Sometimes i set it to shade and i put it on Macro for the body but i've only used the camera for about 25 mins so far so its not the best it could look.

Yea I'm pretty sure its the Pohls by ZeoVit that he's using. Need to order some more lol.
I might have to take you up on that Shades of Fall Acro

Your pictures show how much I know about my camera lol, I really need to sit down with it and mess with the settings.

Cool pictures Shawn. Yeah I put the Blue Lagoon in about 200 par, now I am moving it to ~ 150 to see how it does. Mine got a little cooked too!

We'll have to do a trade here soon. I like that Shades of Fall.

Yeah i think i might try the dungeon for it, it can keep the Beaker Bob Flying Saucer company in there and maybe regain some ofthe blue! Definitely hit me up when you want and just send me a box and ill make sure i accidentally frag it while cleaning. It's not a big colony but i can spare a 1/2" here and there i am sure!
