This year Santa brought me:
1 Mystery Wrasse
6 small Aussia Lord Acan colonies
3 new zoanthid frags
2 Chalice pieces
1 Pink Birdsnest.
And the best of all:
1 MP40w
(Meowzer, I'm still looking for one for you, don't worry)
And woke up this morning to a broken pump for my skimmer

I hope Santa treats you all well too!

LOL, that sucks about the pump, I don't even have a skimmer.
I got myself a 3gal pico, loaded it up with cerameco's vidarock frag station
and loaded it up with hermits, snails, emerald crab, and zoas.
Santa got me a saltwater fish magezine.

Well its 1:00am so Xmas is over…this thread reminded me of a funny story of when my kids were young in kindergarten. After xmas break and the children were back in class, the teacher went around the room and had each child tell her what Santa brought them…When it was my sons turn he said “Nothing, mom won’t let him in the house”
The teacher told me the story..She had never had a child with a different religious background before and had no idea what to say…I just laughed it sounded so funny to me, but at least he didn’t ruin it for the other kids and tell them there was no such person.

powershot sd3500.i need to figure this thing out.i sure aint a camera person.i took some still pics with it and they look nice .but i tried a few pics of the fish swimming and not so much.i know this thing has alot of adjustments but have to figure them out.its not a $1000 camera but seems alot better than the old one.
i dont know what you mean by white balance?by macro lens i think you mean a bigger camera with swap out lenses right.no its still a point and shoot.
i wouldnt invest in an expensive camera as i have bad habits of destroying portable electronics.

can you put the setting as sport? if you put it as sport it shoots faster so it's not so blurry with fish. use auto for corals ect.
