Here is the FTS

Biggest Pally Ever and the elusive Mandarin

Everything looks nice. Are you turning all the flow off when taking pictures? It will help. Also need to steady the camera, a tripod is good, but a tray table in front of the tank to rest your arms on will help too.

Everything looks fantastic. I'm jealous of the Chevron...it's my favorite tang, but I won't be able to get one. At 110g, my tank is only big enough to support one tang...and The Wife has Spoken; it will not be a Chevron.

Question for you: How long have you had your Chevron, and how big is it now? I'm curious about when they lose the juvenile colors in captivity....
Thank you. I have had him for about two months now. He was also in my LFS for about a month before I took him. He is about 2 1/2 inches right now. I am not sure when they lose their colors but I assume I have some time. I think this one is fairly young. He is doing great now. Eats everything and gets along with all the tankmates. The only one that gets nipped is me by the female clown whenever I stick my hand in the tank :)

I didn't know I should turn off the flow :) I do plan on getting a tripod. I have always been really bad at taking pictures but I am trying. My sister is really good I need to have her come over and teach me. Mr. BTLDReef taught me how to use white balance so hopefully less purple pictures :)

I got a bunch of new zoas yesterday and a spiderman blasto, a event horizon favia/chalice and a tropical dream mummy eye chalice. I will take photos when things start opening :)
