Tank looks 100% better in the pics. Really coming along nice.

I need to get new pics up. The algae is all gone!! Looking almost as good as it did a few years ago. Get some growth on my frags and she'll be top notch again!

I got a new camera at work, a Nikon Coolpix 8700. What better way to learn how to use it than take pics of my tank!!

I read melev's tips on his website and played with the white balance and used AP setting.

Here's a couple examples:

Still not quite clear as I'd like but I'm getting closer. I think a lot of it is my lighting. Gonna have to play with the exposure settings.

Nice pics, put mine to shame..

Getting better. Try using the timer so you don't move the camera when you are pushing the button to take the pic and brace your hands against the tank to keep it steady.

Lol a lot better than the photos of my tank taken with my phone

Where is the monti cap located?

ohioreef · « **Reply #45 on:** April 18, 2013, 06:30:54 »

Thanks chrom! Been a long time since it looked this nice!

Travis, it is on the right side kinda under the power head. It's sitting on top if the LR there. The way I took the pic you can't see it. Should be able to see it on the right side pic.

Travis8896 · « **Reply #46 on:** April 18, 2013, 09:00:57 »

That is a LTA I got from lazylivin a few years back. I couldn't have picked a better place for it if I'd placed it!

I also have 2 small GBTAs.

I found the original thread here, looks like it has been four years + I had it for a couple years. http://www.ohioreef.com/index.php?topic=5081.msg40122#msg40122

Cool! Always nice to know how long you've had something. I've had the GBTA longer than that. It's split a couple of times.

Got curious so I did some digging. I found a thread from Dec '06 where I was talking about the GBTA. Looks like I've had it for over 6 years!!
