That Rose has awesome color! Brett you should play with the exposure setting so the pics don't come out so dark. We need a better pic for a future TOTM;)

Yeah, that pic is with my little point and shoot digi (Canon Elph s400)

I'll get my roommates canon 10D and take some real pics someday. . .

They cyano is because my RODI was putting out 36ppm 'clean' water. and out of my tap it's 47. So I'm just pre-filtering it. I donated the unit to Randy at pratt. it needed everything but the prefilter changed, and he has most of it on hand.

DRZL. I told jim to make you jump through hoops to get that frag! (he'll be bringing it to the fragswap, so you better wear your jumping shoes that day!)

Everyone, the single head of the blue lobo (down in the left hand corner) is for the auction! I'm not going to be there to bring in pics, but ask JennyButterfly. She knows how nice it is!

And I'm more concerned about all the SPS jim is going to sneak into my tank than I am about stuff disappearing. (I've got a lojack chip embedded in the clam. So he's not getting it!)
