Ok, who wants to plan a heist of steves red blastos?

Dale

[STACKER]

Ok, here's the Nano, just taken 5 min. ago setup on Feb. 11, still very new and green

This is a shot of the 120 from Jan. or early Feb. after the last 50 lb. of LR was added. I'll take a new one tonite to show how many frags I need :)

http://www.modesinc.com/reef/dscf528a.jpg

I have tons of macro and super macro pics of fish, pods, worms, crabs, snails, macro-algae, coraline, tunicates, etc. etc. i suppose I'll post a few of the really good ones. BTW, I have a new Fuji S7000 that has taken most if the better shots I'll bring it along on "field trips" if anyone wants some reallty hires pics taken of their tanks. Make sure you have a cold beer for me tho, photography makes a man thirsty! :)

[STACKER]

Shroom I picked up Sunday for $20 taken lastnight with the s7000. It's much more impressive at 2400 DPI but... Cool toys!!!! :)

hey dale i know somebody else who has some red blastos we can make it a double hit.. and then we will have all the blastos ha ha... lol sorry to sacrifice you rick. but you need to take one for the club

[tidal]

how do you post pics on this thread

[tidal]

nice mushrooms stacker.. i had my eye on those type of shrooms. i had to make a choise between them and bright green blastos. i chose the blastos.. maybe we could trade a polyp for a polyp

[STACKER]

Ok, you have to find a place to host the pics (I FTP mine up to my own Website space) and link to them using the IMG toggle in the reply menu. I'm pretty sure you can post several pics to the photo gallery herer in RC then link to them too but they limit your file size to like 325K I think. That's why I blew that off and just used my own space. I suppose I'll have to free up a few megs so I can upload a few more pics top post.

I picked up a red Blasto myself but there's only 2 adult and one juvi on the frag now. I'm hoping the greenies will take off and cover the big piece of LR I placed the big frag on so I can hammer it into 2-3 pieces to trade. Very beautiful under actinic/12K combo.

[V10 MOJO]

ill do a pic or two as soon as i can take a decent pic, LOL

[STACKER]

Good super macro shot of a blue legger

[sbluscombe]

Steve

[STACKER]

There ya go! There's others out ther too that have free posting space.

[hookedonfish]

Hey STACKER, Nice Macro shot of the blue leg, If you ever want to practice more with your new camera you can stop by and take some pics of my tank. I have beer.

Paul

[STACKER]

Beer! I have camera will travel! Especially for othere cool reer stuff and beer! We're trying to wrap up a kitchen remodel (more like tornado damage :) ) but I'm thinking about having a small members and friends party/frag swap/informal meeting at our place soon. I don't have much to swap yet but I'm gonna work on that! Shoot me an e-mail and we can figger out when i can pop in for that beer! :)

[STACKER]

P.S. I have hundreds of pics, some are huge tho and I don't want to push my web space by posting them.


Here's a rare sighting of my Tiger Tail

[ONAGI]

Very nice Pics Stacker. Great detail and clarity.

[STACKER]

It's all the camera, I have little photographic talent or patience. I thought digital cameras were cool but this one is sub zero. I can't imagine the quality of the SLR digitals in the $2+ grand ranges. At the highest resolution setting, super macro mode, and a few button pushes for exposure a monkey could take killer pics. I'm living proof! :)

[V10 MOJO]

stacker, i always got beer in the frige. ill gladly do a swap of pics for beers. what do you drink?

i currently have

PBR (always some available)
Nevada pale ale
corona
blackened voodoo lager

let me know when you want to get to work :D

[STACKER]

I like beer, not lite, not malt liquor. My fav's are Canadian Lagers/Ales, Yuengling, Dos Equis, Paulaner (German Hefe) and any non sissy brew with body and plenty of hop flavour and bittering. BTW. I brew been and make wine too (when time permits).

FREE beer is GOOD beer... Even a FREE Coors Light is drinkable, just not enjoyable. I have 3 taps in the bar in the basement (just happens to be where the big tank is too). Coinscidence? Prolly NOT :)...

I think we need to set up some on location visit/photo shoot/beer or wind tasting "meetings" aye?

[sportsguy247]

A few zoo frags.

Omar ,
Nice to see a pic of your tank but i do have to say that finish on the stand is really bad!LOL!!!!

[ONAGI]

it must have been one of the 5 coats of poly. I probably need to get a few more on it this summer. LOL.

My camera needs glasses. It doesn't see too well.

I hope this isn't too big this time. I am still trying to learn this piece. Had the camera only a month or so. This picture taking and etc. could be a great topic to do at one of the meetings in the future. Stacker and Steve seem to have a good grasp on this topic. You guys post nice pics!

[sbluscombe]

Omar,
Your missing the first [IMG] tag.Can't veiw the photos

Thanks Steve. This should be the larger view of the basement.

[STACKER]

there ya go!

[Reefer247]

lookin good everyone.. love the pics.. i need to get pics of my tank up.. and my new family of clowns.. :)

[STACKER]

My 125 lastnight after a complete rearranging of LR, 25 gal. water change, and removal of an amazing amount of detrius from new LR added in Jan. It was hard to believe how much crap...and I have a considerable bit more to remove before I'm happy.

umm... the green cup holds the tank together dude

[STACKER]

LOL... mine is a 32 oz. plastic mug... but I think it holds me together rather than the tank! :)

[deepbluesea99]

im finishing up my rockwork on the sps tank now dale but after that im game.i live in girard though but im right off 422 easy to find.just look for the house that has the nucular glowing living room lol.

[STACKER]

LOL... I had a neighbor ask if I was growing pot once! :)

[deepbluesea99]

haha im just waiting for that dale im sure they will be verry disapointed. as i have ben told by an oficer before that i fit the profile lol we had a short chat about why profiling was wrong after he tore my car apart and i told him to give me a blood test or let me go.guess he was satisfied with my cooperation after the offer.geesh i dont even smell like a hipy.

[STACKER]

LOL you hippy! hehehehehe.... Hell, I look clean cut and they've still messed with me. Maybe it was the DeadHead sticker on my old truck!

Here's my FREEBIE colt. Not all th eway opened yet but it's about the size of a soccer ball when it is. And it was FREE.. woohoo!!!!!

Hell, I may actually be able to trade stuff soon!

http://www.modesinc.com/reef/dscf1509.jpg

[Ashley7524]

nice colt. I have a colt that looks like that and it huge. The only problem is that I cant get any frags of it to stick for anything. If you get something to work with yours let me know what you did

[STACKER]

The guy I got this from simply rubber bands 'em on for 2-3 days. I haven't pulled any off yet an I'm gonna give 'em some time to chill and start growing before I do anything with 'em.

[Ashley7524]

we have tried rubberbanding them but the always escape the rubberband and float around the tank.

[STACKER]

You must be holding yer tongue the wrong way :) Maybe try a dry plug or rock, blot the foot of the colt (heh heh colts foot... botanical joke..) and stoopid glue both, then band , then put back in the tank. They are really slimy tho...

[deepbluesea99]

ashley try a plastic toothpic and heat one end mash it flat so it looks like the head of a nail then jam it through the stalk into a piece of lr rubble that will hold it untill it gets a grip on the rock.oh ya put it in a moderate flow area of the tank.good luck

[STACKER]

Duct tape! (sorry, couldn't resist)

[Reefer247]

super glue only holds for a few days (on alot of leathers) then the slime coat just breaks it free.. i take a toothpick and fray it in half.. then make sure its plyable bend it around a pice of rubble rock and rubberband it.. leave it sit in low current and in about a week its attached.. works for me just about every time.. if you do it to tight it just splits the coral.. has to be loose but just enough to hold in place.. i have other methods of doing this also just pm me.. later

[Ashley7524]

I think I am going to try the duct tape yup that'll do it. lol j/k

Thanks for the ideas I will have to give a few a try until I find the perfect one.

[zzpw3x]

I like reefer247 's method. Bridal vale also works (or an onion bag)
