Very nice! I Actually prefer the look of your tank without the black oyama xD

Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

thanks man! i actually pasted the black background last time to try and improve sps color viewing from the front. i do prefer the clean back ground look!

Bro u give me the inspiration to keep sps using razor lightings...

thanks! the razor isn't the best out there but definitely the better ones! im awaiting my 120 degree lenses!

1x yellow tang

1x copperband butterfly

1x flame angel

1x yellow coris wrasse

1x dispar anthias

trying out fish photography,
my lone survivor of 4 dispar anthias, the previous 3 all jumped out after being chased by my blue chromis, now that chromis lives in my sump, this fella is doing great
Copperband butterfly! one of my fav fishes ever since i started this hobby, but felt tank wasn't ready. now its been 8 months and was hoping even if it didn't eat frozen food, i have tons of words/pods for him to eat. But i was lucky! this fella started eating frozen mysis on day 2 and is a pretty quick eater! i currently feeds him up to 4 frozen meals a day to pump him up.
Flame angel, occasionally nips at my SPS when i forgot to feed in the afternoon.
my pair of true percular
ends this post with a blood shrimp! have yet to see it go out in the open!
