Doesn't it though?! I'd put a blue spot in there. No predators, right Mark? You'd love it! They are not difficult to care for. They eat meaty things. I'd feed a mixture of mysis, krill, finely chopped squid, chopped mussel. With only the angel in there the blue spot would have a field day!

The best part is they watch you just as much as you watch them. It's GREAT.

I did water changes on both tanks today. Oreo is looking almost 100% better, doesn't seem to have any permanent damage to the eye. Tango (the Blue Eyed Tang) is eating mush like a fiend now - that reminds me, I need to get a better picture of him tomorrow.

Everything is looking pretty happy except the trumpet, I seem to be losing a few heads, but the other ones are perking up. I think it was because my alk was low after the move, everything is back in order now.

I noticed today that the duncan now has 8 new heads coming out from the original three for a total of 11. They are all budding from right below the old heads...

I can see the details on the tentacles, even. Did you use a tripod, or do you have incredibly steady hands?

Thanks everyone! Sometimes I get a lucky shot, I take tons and throw most of them out.

No tripod for that, my hands aren't too steady either.

These were my settings:
75mm focal length
1/60 shutter speed
f/5.6
ISO 100

If I'm not using a tripod, I always try to keep the shutter speed close to or higher than the focal length.


On another note, my longspine urchin is acting strange today. It is hiding in a corner and I can see on the bottom side it is sticking itself out really far - hard to describe any better. I thought it might be stuck between some corals, so I moved one and it sucked back in and found another corner to get in and is doing the same thing again. It dropped a couple spines so I'm a bit worried. Everything else looks just fine.

Huh. Could it maybe be getting ready to spawn? I've not seen anything bulge out the bottom of mine ever. Hope it's okay.

You've actually READ YOUR CAMERA BOOK HAVEN'T YOU, YOU TRAITOR!
