Hi Mikk yes when you do a post go down to where it says manage attachments click on that and browse your pics and upload them in, as long as they are the right size they will go in. I resize mine before i put them in with Photo Gadget do a search on google for it. HTH Twiggy:D:D

Hi Mikk nice pics there m8 i love the Yellow Tangs also the Green Chromis as well, well done m8 Twiggy:D:D

[Aquandy]

Great pics and agree with Eric, lovely see more than one Yellow Tang and those Green Chromis too. Bet feeding time is fun to watch?

[Noble78]

Yeah tank looks ace mate, you must be well pleased :)

[mikk1301]

yeah its a step closer to my dream,the new skimmer has helped with the colours on the corals,got a calcium reactor on the way so hopefully even bigger and better things on the horizon:D.the chromis(14-15 or them)always seem to be out and about but as soon as the lights go off and the blues come on they reverse into the rock work and corals,looks frantic at feeding time lol,tang wise i recently removed a yellow into a friends tank as it was smaller than the other 3 so he was getting picked on a little bit,the sailfin has been moved on to allow the introduction of my achillies tang:drool:

[cl0wn]

some people think chromis look a bit boring, but as your tank shows they can look stunning in a shoal. very effective. love the tangs also. any probs with the centropyge's nipping corals?

[Buster]

nice pics and some great coloured corals and fish.:)

[mikk1301]

some people think chromis look a bit boring, but as your tank shows they can look stunning in a shoal. very effective. love the tangs also. any probs with the centropyge's nipping corals?yes i love the chromis,i was toying with the idea of a shoal of anthias but i got some chromis free then kept getting some "thrown"in as i have gone along:Di have 3-4 of them constantly spawning.plus the anthias are bloody expensive as i got 2 for 35quid:eek:.as for the coral and flame i havent seen any detriment or sign of attack to the corals:D.regards mikk

[mikk1301]

nice pics and some great coloured corals and fish.:)

[mikk1301]
