Good lookin!  what'd ya use to get those under water pictures?

[pontiac2002gtp]

There aren't any underwater pics.

Awesome pics. What kind of camera do you have?

[pontiac2002gtp]

Its a sony dsc-h5 and I have a 10x macro lens it works good if you can get the coral the right distance so it will focus.

There aren't any underwater pics.

Thats one hell of a camera because those pictures are great.

I thought the last three where underwater since they appear to be facing the corals.

[pontiac2002gtp]

They are in my main tank just shot through the glass.  I had to scoot the frag rack closer to the glass to get it to focus.

Very very nice!

I got to see this setup today and the pics don't do it justice. Fantastic setup, ultra quiet for all the gear he has and corals have pretty incredible colors.

Looks nice.
Are the tubs in a fish room behind your tank?
What type of lighting do you have over the frag tank?
Either way I'm jealous.

[pontiac2002gtp]

yeah the tubs are in a storage area that is behind the wall from the tank.
I have a 250watt 20k radium with a lumatek ballast and lumenbright mini reflector I really like the way the radium bulb brings out the colors.

Which skimmer is that?  Hurricone?

[Blown76mav]

looks like a Octo 250 to me. 

[pontiac2002gtp]

Its a hurricone cat2.  I guess they don't have the right stickers yet.

Cool.  I have yet to seem one in person.  How is it performing?  It looks like it is milked out pretty well!  That has an Askoll pump on it, right?

[pontiac2002gtp]

I have only had it a few weeks but so far I really like it pulls a ton of junk and runs really quiet.  The askoll pump pulls a ton of air and has no startup issues which is what sold me on the skimmer.  Makes my room really stink though compared to my old skimmer which ran the air coming out through carbon to kill the smell.
