Finally got a chance to photo my 180! (pic intensive)

[rskillz]

Had some down time today to simply turn on music and take photos of my tank. With the lady and the baby gone, it's quite peaceful to tank different shots of random perspectives of the tank/coral/fish. This 180 has been up for about 10 days, and was the result of an upgrade from a 72 gallon.

I've added a few fish thus far, Helfrichi pair, Mystery Wrasse, Anthias Trio, Starry Blenny, Melanarus Wrasse are all new and doing great.

All pictures were taken on a Canon T1i under Phoenix 14k, LED actinic, and CF actinic. I didn't do any editing.

Let me know what ya think!

Oh, and a pic of my burgeoning family that somehow puts up with this addiction, haha! (Pretty sure my daughter is supportive; she's just a bit too young to express it) =)

Yea, zoas are till close to my favorite coral. Chalices are #1 but zoa are a close second. Variety is a good thing.

Pretty as usual I love the mystery wrasse.

Absolutely beautiful pics! I second the zoa pack request. Let me know how the jawfish does...I love them. Is the hawkfish behaving in your reef? I've heard they can cause some havok...definitely on my "would love to have one" list.

Let me know when you get them fragged and I'll bring over the Tubbs. They are growing like crazy! You might have to peel me away from your tank though...

lol, I was on my way to work.

And yea Amber, as of right now it is really just a ton of "healthy frags" with the exception of about 10-15 corals. Trying to deny my coral acquisition addiction so that what I already have actually has room to grow =)
