***Michelle's Reef Tank***

[VaBusa]

Heya VA... YOU HAVE TO SET UP AN AQUARIUM CAM!!!!!!!!!   Just stick it somewhere where you only get a good shot of the Aquarium!  That would kick ass...  Then you could keep an eye on your fishes while your at work too...  

Just a thought darlin...  That way us poor bastards that only manage to kill fish, could enjoy your badass aquarium....

A web cam would be a wonderful idea, BUT, no home PC right now, and no plans to buy one with all disposable income going to a Busa and that tank!!!

Good idea though...I've never used any of the web cam technology...I'd be lost...

Oh, and thanks everyone, for the kind words...it's a fun (and frustrating) hobby, and I've been meaning to take some updated pics for a long time now...just for you guys!

Thanks guys...the pics don't do it justice.  There's so much color in there, but when I take pics, it all gets washed out BLUE!  

 Still, some had asked that I post some newer pics a while back, so there you go!  

I think you need to shine some additional (white) lights into the tank to get better illumination for your photos. I did a search on Google using "photographing fish tanks" and there's a bunch of sites out there with advice on how to do it/what kind of film to use etc.

That's a cool tank by the way.

Looks great Shells! (Get it? Shells...Aquarium... Hahahahahah!)

The live coral is awesome!

Had a 20 tall marine tank way back when. I like the candy stripped shrimp, very industrious little pretty critters.

They look good, You know I cna get all of that stuff for free here in hawaii. Just takes a bag come flippers and a little time. I have actually seen most of those fish just swimming around.

12 or so years back, my first wife and I had 7 tanks out on lease to local businesses....only one was marine, but the sheer volume of work in maintaining all those tanks burned me out on the hobby for years. After seeing yours, though, I think I may dabble in setting up a nice little reef tank so the kids can start learning a little. Nice looking tank, Michelle!

Looks very nice, but isn't that a chunk of illegal coral to the left.

Really does look nice.
