Jon,

When you make a post, there is a link under the box that you type in called Manage Attachments. Click that link and follow the steps, it's pretty easy.

Just a quick hint... Get the camera DOWN to tank level so that the lens plain is parallel to the front glass... that way the water won't refract the light and make your pictures blurry. ANd to rotate the picture just open it in Window picture viewer there will be 2 little icons that are blue and green, Just click rotate 90 degrees, then either clockwise or Counter clockwise.

But looking good otherwise. THat is a HUGE hammer coral!! It looks even bigger then mine!!!

Hi fishguy,

Here's your pic that I rotated for you What type of software you are using to edit your pictures? There should be a feature to rotate or flip your picture in it. I resized it a bit as well becouse the file size was huge,about 212k

I try and dose religiously but since im at college i have to give my old man some of the credit as well. that hammer was borderline dead when i got him and ive given it a little needed tlc and w/ the protection of my perc clowns (who for no reason went to the big fish bowl in the sky 2 weeks ago) just started doing well. and i eventually had to move some lr out of the tank and move the hammer over more because it was pressing its self up against the glass and doing a number on himself. i mainly stick to dt's, ca, strontium/molybdenum, iodine, essential elements and then i sometimes kick in a little reef vital when i feed and everyone seems happy so ive stuck to the game plan and they all seem happy. the pics of my 65 acrylic tank came out crappy so i dont have any decent pics of my black clowns and other corals which are doing as well. again that tank is mostly lps and softies because im not yet into the mh price range. but im hoping this spring break to move into a 120 and shut down the 65 and 45 and just merge the two tanks. i am also wanting to get a decent digi cam those pics are off of a disposable cam so im thinking they cant get all that much better w/o getting a real digi cam. thanks for rotating my pic for me....i didnt even touch any of 'em up or rotate because i havent had time to play with it yet. just wanted to give you guys a peak and see what you thought. ill try and clean up a full tank shot or something else. when/if i make that merge into a big tank im wanting to move up to mh/pc's and get some sps coral and try and get as beautiful of a tank as you guys....again though....college budget so luckily im patient because the cash makes me be patient

This is a pic i played around w/ a bit to make it clear how i have it set up....again done w/ a disposable cam and this is just about 10min after the lights kicked on and just after (20min) putting in my 9 for 99 from jeffs.
full tank shot:
p.s. ok this isnt the one i edited but i guess this ones not too terrible looking.
