Hi Dennis,
You put them in the Http:// button. You have to click on the IMG button and then paste the URL in there. Then the photo's show up in the post.

I think it's because of the "?" in the URL...

yep, RC doesn't allow strange characters in the IMG posts, such as ? marks. Either photobucket changed or RC changed, so now you have to copy and paste the images from the photo description in photobucket, or right click the image, properties, highlight and copy the address (URL), and use that address.

No problem Dennis. You've got a killer tank, I remember seeing pictures of it a few months ago and thinking, "wow, what a nice clean tank" :) Happy to help!

Thanks again Harry. Ya...$50 for that acan lord. I also got that frag of blue w/green eye chalice for $25 from another LFS. The new Red chalice (first pic) I paid $75 for but, it's a pretty good size hunk of coral.

Pretty decent prices up here in the NW.

Thanks again everyone for the nice comments!

yeah ditto on the $50 acan score! I wish all the stores and online vendors would price stuff reasonably like that. I hear they pay the same but if it looks nice charge more, it makes you feel like they messed up and lost money when in reality they just priced marked it up the same as the rest of the shipment most likely.
Sounds like you have a good store up there!

$50 for this large and great looking Acan - what a steal!!! Looks like you got yourself a nice Cristmas gift. Good luck with the corals.

Yep..was definitely happy with the acan. The red on it is not as pronounced as some that I have seen but, it is still pretty. I think some of the, "lack of red" can be attributed to my lighting witch is defiantly skewed towards the blue end of the spectrum.

Happy New Year!!!!

Dennis

PS- here's another pic with a little different angle.
