Joe,

With that blue light white balance will be your friend :)

looking good.  It is amazing how small an acro colony can look when it has that much room to grow.

Scott - I'll look for the white balance on the camera, maybe actually look at the manual.

Larrynews - I bought it used from someone in the ATL, but it originally came from glasscages.com.  My other tanks are all from them and I couldn't be happier.

Sooo anyone interested in buying a 4x4x2 cube??? Not for sure, but a real estate deal has come up that is just to good to pass up and I will have to sell this tank to show my house. And there won't be a proper place for it in the new place.  So if anyone is interested I'll make you a sweet deal on the tank and stand :)

:) It's still up in the air. I just spend the last 3 hours crawling around in the crawl space and the work may be more than I want to take on right now. I still need to have a sit down with the seller, but I'm thinking the tank might be finished after all.

Well we are staying put for the time being :) so I moved a few more corals into the tank tonight and plan to move most of the rest tomorrow and Thursday. Baggerhog is going to bring over his kick arse camera tomorrow and snap some pics for me so I'll post some new ones tomorrow.

Here are some coral pics. Stand is finished but I still have not finished the hood. It will probably get done during August when things slow down a little.

First. If you're going to have a kid, make sure you keep your tank. It is the best babysitter on earth.


ORA Roscoe's I think


ORA PearlBerry


ORA Spongodes


ORA TriColor


Purple Monster


Tyree Rainbow


Zoanthid Pillar


Unknown cool one from Just Coral


LE Monti Rock

Very nice ORA Pearlberry!  Your ORA Roscoe looks like an ORA Chips to me, but I may be wrong. I have both corals in my system and they look distinctively different. The Chips Acropora" has very long greenish yellow polyps lending the coral a fuzzy appearance. The growth tips of the coral are bright purple."

Very nice Joe!  I think I may have some LE's up for trading eventually.   ;) 

I agree with Tim.  I have the ORA Roscoe's from JC...different look to it.  I got some pictures of it tonight...I'll try to get them posted soon...maybe after I finish the newsletter.

I keep a list on where I got certain corals and I can't find it right now. I will keep looking at let you know. I think I got it from someone up in Cleveland.

Thanks and just let me know when you have something you feel comfortable fragging.  Most of my stuff isn't really ready yet, but when they are I will let you know.

Hey. I got it from SPSstoner from Cleveland. He had a tank crash about 2 months after I got it and lost everything.

Pffffftttttt!!!  I'm next on the Purple Monster list!!!   ;)  (If my tank doesn't die tonight). 

Have you heard from SPStoner since the crash?  He sent me a couple of PM's right after...but haven't heard from him since.

I'll put you on the list. It'll probably be ready to frag in 2014. We had PMed back and forthe a few times as I have several of his corals but then he sort of drifted away. He had a very nice system. Hopefully he will be back.
