Hi, I was wondering if you have preferred settings that you use for photos taken with the snapseed app using iPhone ? Thanks for your time

Hi, all photos taken via iphone all in default mode no preferred custom settings.

Ok, thanks!
I downloaded the snapseed app and saw all the editing options. Was there any preferred photo settings within the app?

Stunning. I read on the first page of your thread that this tank is 3 months old. It would be wonderful for those thinking about getting into the hobby to see your build thread. Just seeing this as a possibility may remove those doubts.
Your placement and colors are great my friend!

Once you have taken the photos, you can edit via snapseed apps, i will edit accordingly will normally adjust the warmth, contrast & white balance.

Lovely reef! It seems like every picture is a different aquascape?! Do you often rearrange the corals or have you had some die off? Or maybe they've just grown enough between pics I don't recognize them?

Hi the current reef have been rescape due to add on coral, some die off and growth. But the progress, I can say the reef is evolving by each day and getting mature.

Sorry for the list of questions!

How do you like the gyre pumps? Are they reliable? A lot of maintenance? Do they seem cheap? Which ones do you run?

I currently have 2 MP40s on a 24x24x24 cube and they have to be turned all the way down (why Ecotech doesn't make the MP10s fit 1/2 glass is beyond me). I was thinking the gyres might work better on my tank.

Thanks for answering!

Hi i'm using 2 units Gyre XF130 with 200 Series Advance Controller Unit and i'm pleased with the outcome, with maximum flexibility in the desired flow patterns, flow rate and more... I can say its reliable for my 2.5 footer reefs. Set into pulse mode with the gyre really performs well.
