a few pics

[SteveS]

been snapping away today with my camera, thought i'd share a few with you guys.

tanks settled nicely now, and the restocking begins

1. mandarin, added last week :)
2. cbb, im not a great fan of lfs' selling these fish due to the low survival rate. i'd been on the lookout for one for a while, figured while the rest of my fish are on holiday at Rays, it would be a great opportunity to let one have the run of the tank settle in, and get feeding. this one was in with some other butterflies and even a powder blue, and was competeing for food at the lfs. chases mysis round the tank like a good un!
3.brain coral, nearly lost this when i had my nitrate problems last year, coming back well now
4. another pic of the lettuce coral picked up last week

But when a Fuji can snap like that........ :)

Great pics Steve. Especially like the brain coral. I can't keep brain corals any more because of my emperor angel so I'll have to live through your pictures ;)

lol, i was saying it Never moves off auto, well.......tried it once but gave up due to no undersanding at all. I've brought books on the subject but must have a mental block when focus or aperture is mentioned :)
