Wolmutt's Tank Shoot - Get a mop...

[Zibba]

You'll need it to clean up all the drool!!!

Matt and I had some fun taking pictures of his new tank. It's coming along really well and he has some amazing corals! Some are still very small frags, but they have SOOOO much potential! I'll start off with a full tank shot, but it absolutely does this tank no justice because there are so many beautiful micros & acans that you can't see, plus there are so many rare sps frags that just don't show up...yet!

On with the show. Here is wolmutt's 120 gallon AGA w/ 6-bulb tek t5 lighting:

He has probably 75% sps, but most of my focus was on his beautiful micro & acan collection. We'll get a few sps frag shots out of the way:

Hairy Blue Mille:

Some sort of Bonsi:

This thing is going to be sweet when it decides to grow out - unknown teal acro:

The cyan coloring on this piece was hard to capture, but it was really beautiful. Too bad he whacked it with the magnet algae cleaner:

Two really colorful zoa shots before we get on with the real palate wetters.

Wolmutt's blazing pink zoas (no other pink zoa competes) and it's hard to capture the true brilliance of this pink with the camera :

Sweet. My esp...I see a new headline on the news in the near future. "Man posing as roommate steals tank full of coral specimens." Matt - you still looking for a roomie...I think I know someone.

Awesome shots... Some of the best I've seen in the forums.

105 AF-S VR for the macro shots?
