    No matter which lens I use and how expensive it is, I always seem to go back to the $100 50mm prime. Theyre just great lenses, thats why theyve been a staple for..well..ever. For both companies. Beautiful shots, once again. Mark

    My Long Term Reef Build Diary!

    Okay, so here it is. The tank itself Everything it comes with. Closer pic of everything it comes with. So, with everything included, not too shabby I think. The updated price is $225 for everything. A little stain, a clean down, black paint, and a stand and I think we're good to go! Mark...

    should I use substrate or not

    Agree with FJoe. A DSB would help with keeping the nitrates down. I believe all SBs help somewhat, but a DSB is where its at if you want it for that. Mark

    hitchhiker question

    Very weird looking indeed. I have no idea what it is, but I cant wait to find out. I would say if you have any doubts at all, take it out. Just in case. Do you have a sump/fuge you could put it in? Mark

    Missnano's 12G Nano Tank Diary

    Sometimes things have to be said. And I must say, you're right. Bringing the salt thingy to mom and asking where the level on the thingy should be set for the salt is a start at least, I suppose %%. At least she knew if her LR was fully cured in that tank it was definately in before the...

    I would imagine the MKII would have exceptionally good ISO ability, though. The pictures look great, no need to worry about that. I was thinking about bringing the Nikon 50mm 1.8, 80-200mm 2.8, and sigma 105mm 2.8 macro when I go. Possibly Sigma 10-20mm 3.5 for FTS and such. We'll have to...
