TSX, the camera i use is just a 3.2 megapixel sony cybershot. the goby pictures are good cause the fish doesn't move and it sits on the bottom close to the front of the tank. so it's easy to take pics of that fish. other fish are almost impossible to get real good pics of with that camera.
pitbull01, the lighting i have is 2 - 250 watt PFO mini pendants with 14K hamilton bulbs and icecap ballasts. those lights are on for about 6 hours a day. and then i have 4 - 95 watt vho's that are on for 2 hours before and after the MH. the pictures i took are with the MH on. i orginally was going to run the vho's for 10 hours plus the 6 hours of MH and then i saw how the corals were doing with just the MH on and i thought there is no need to run the VHO's too. just uses more energy and produces more heat if all the lights are on at the same time. i have two 4" icecap fans for cooling.
