Not setting yourself easy goals then - good luck it is a beautiful system - all the best, would be fantastic to see that in a few years time.

Was my thoughts as well Calvin, maybe he just used Photoshop's hue and saturation settings.

That was my exact thoughts - much to brightly coloured. Unaturally so...

I am impressed with his paired angelfish though

Notwithstanding the "colour enhancement" that is a great set up and is not a bad goal to set yourself - bloody big mountain to climb - but that is dedication.

It's a nice system and all that but has reef central ever featured a tank that is not sps dominated?

Tridan, those tanks are all from 2000, we're in 2007 if you haven't noticed

What I am trying to say is that you very rarely see a tank of the month that is not sps dominated, would be nice to see tanks that have only softies or LPS in.

i noticed most overseas forums are SPS tank,very rarely you'll see a LPS or softies tank,unless its like 80% + SPS and then a few LPS and softies
