    Take PRO pics for $6

    Here is on i shot at an LFS with an off camera flash No spatula, but the same effect. and another one, but not nearly as cool as the first...i did a horrible amount of PS on this one to get rid of crap on the glass and floaters...owell...would have been a cool shot.

    Anyone need anything made out of pyrex?

    Do you think its possible to make a dropper with a larger bell shape at the bottom. Something that could go around, say a dendro polyp, or scoly mouth, and protect it long enough from flow and other hungry critters? Something ive wanted for a long time, but never knew anyone who could make...

    Dendrophyllia sp care and tips

    They need to be fed meaty foods atleast 2x a week IMHO. You can do less, but keep an eye on their base flesh. If they arent getting enough it will start to recede.

    Take PRO pics for $6

    Ok, i managed to find the perfect tool for the average photographer to get pro quality pics for about $6. Tons of people have asked me how to get only the coral to be lit and have an all black (or nearly black) background. This normally takes several pieces of equipment, and open top of...

    Scolymia - Doughnut Coral?

    ive had mine do that before...give it some more flow... Its not starving, its all lacerated. When you put in the tank did you hold it upside down? All thin fleshed corals like that, i.e. torch, hammer, frog spawn, scoly, duncans, dendros need to be pulled out of water upside down. This...

    A little perspective

    I help some of my LFS's with stock photos and such, and it works out great for me. I get first crack of an order they may get in (when i can afford it) and i get to take cool pics of what i cant. Most of these are from my home tanks. Unfortunately, i grossly outgrew my display and tore it...
