That is a real nice tank....those yellow palys are awesome. I have only seen regular yellow zoos.

I think those are Nuclear greens right below Purple deaths. Did you do much editing to the shots? The blue from those Tubb's is blinding, but the green and purple aren't over done leading me to believe that is not edited. Looks great!!!

Holy smokes. Fab sps, and softies. Your zoas and palys are fantastic looking. And your clam is a wow.
I like your aquascaping in general too.
Can you tell us what you have for lighting?
Also, do you feed your zoas/palys?
Nice work.

Thankyou very much for the nice compliments. The shots were taken with a Nikon D50 and processed thru ACDSee photo software. I used the crop feature, auto exposure/contrast sharpness. No color correction. The auto exposure/contrast button sometimes seems to over saturate a bit and so you have to lower the effect. The shot with the nukes, purple deaths and tubs was taken with flash so, ya, those tubs are definitly that bright. They dont appear that bright to me under the 20K radium bulbs but none the less....they are bright.

The lighting is a 150W, DE, 20K Radium bulb. There are also two 24W T-% bulbs that are the "marine" colored bulbs from Pet Smart. I think they are pretty much full actinics but in the blue, not purple range. The is a Remora skimmer and a Phosban reactor running RowaPhos. I dose BIonic daily for Ca and alk. I also use Prodibio Digest and Bioptim. I also dose KZ's Coral Vitalizer and Pohl's extra daily along with Elos Omega aminos. I dont run any zeolite stones.

Thanks again everyone! Cant wait for things to grow in. Oh ya, there are also 3 fish in there. A doliatus rabbit fish, a sixline wrasse and a bicolor pseudochromis.

Oh, one more thing, the circulation. I run one Tunze nano stream 6055 on a single controller set to pulse every 3 seconds or so and a nanostream 6025. The return pump from the back moves about 500gph per the manufacture, thru a lockline return in the lower left corner. Kind of a goofy return setup if ya ask me but, it has worked ok thus far. Getting the pump out for maintainence is a sheer terror though.
