Oh the shame.... I have not been good with updates the last weeks due to too much work :)

I just got a new toy. The new Canon 5D Mk2 camera which also shoots video so now I can do some very interesting things.

Here is a little rushed video I did the day after I got the camera with a 15mm fisheye lens and a steadicam (which was I did not adjust properly)

Fisheye view of the fishtank

Apologies for my lack of updates.

It's ok , It's not like you do not have a job to attend to or anything . When are the new offices going to be setup? Looked like they werent yet so was curious if you have to stop by everyday to check up on the tank .




Does t20 have the blue prints to this tank? ZING!

Good one ;)

The offices are all set up now and yes, I do check up on the tank every day when I'm at work. The auto top-off system is not online yet so I have to add water manually.

How much evap are you getting daily? ( If you have figured it out , I assume you are just filling it directly out of the hose so not really measuring )

simply amazing

lestat737 12/13/2008 05:20 PM

What did you use to draw up those images of the tank?

Deltec have delayed the delivery date of the tank a little saying that due to them moving offices/plant and that they haven't received the bottom glass they have to add few weeks :(

In other news I have been sketching a little trying to get some idea on how to arrange the rock work.

I like canyons, coves and caves and I want to have a feeling of depth and also equally amounts of sand and rock for good feng shui ;)

That was drawn in a program called SketchUp. It's free from Google.

You are right about that. I'm just filling it directly and It feels like a lot of evaporation. I think I will actually measure it now that you mention it...

Looking forward to more pictures of the tank and inhabitants. This is an inspiring build thread. Thanks for sharing.

Arnar 12/16/2008 05:44 PM

Did some more video shooting. This is from my holding tank at home. Taken with a 100mm Canon 2.8 lens.

Actinics on in this one. I have another one with the MH's on the way shortly ;)

Actinic HD video

I'm really pleased with Youtube's new HD feeds.

Shot this on my new Canon 5D Mk2 with a Canon 100mm f2.8 macrolens. This was straight from camera with no post-processing.

Joecoral86 12/17/2008 07:15 AM

Holy crap! I've only just stumbled across this thread, but I have to say it is looking absolutely fantastic, I could only ever dream about having a tank like this. You truly are living the dream Arnar, MMORPG and a giant reef, what else could a (nerd like myself) guy ask for?!
Looking forward to more pics!

How are you finding the 5D mkII? I would love one but I can't afford it being a poor, unemployed graduate, so I guess I'll have to stick with my 400D for now
