lduncan Posted July 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 All you need to do is take photos of the corals at regular intervals at the same distance and zoom, and camera settings. Then put you can put them into a program like quicktime (pro version) as video frames and you can set the framerate, and you have a movie. You might be able to make out on the full tank shot, some bit of tape i've used to mark the lens position on the glass so I can get the camera in roughly the same place for each photo.

wasp Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Well I don't have the pro version, but I'll take the shots, so if I come across some software I can do it. Yes I did see the tape, I'll do something also to make sure the shots line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasp Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 The male died first (after about 6 weeks), then three weeks later I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to get a replacement male. When the replacement was added, the existing female started acting strangely (became more reclusive, hiding in the rocks more) and died soon after. They were both still eating well and looked in good condition, why or what they died of is a mystery to me. But the replacement male, which is the one in the tank at the moment, seemed to have a better behaviour from the start. Much more active, and "agressive" than the first pair. Layton Actually I wouldn't mess with triggers again after the one I had, just an evil fish eater. When I watched him, all he spent his day doing was eyeing up the other fish, waiting for a chance to strike. The other fish had to be alert 100% of the time. Even had to be careful when I fed them it got me on the finger one day a nasty bite that bled profusely. They do look pretty cool, but do limit what else you can safely have, and mine, which was just a common old tuff as old boots Niger Trigger, did have a spooking effect on a lot of the other fish, the ones it didn't eat that is he got 4 in the end! When I finally pulled it, the change in behaviour of the other fish was obvious. Of course the whole thing may have been made worse because I have a small tank.

lduncan Posted August 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Some time lapse. They're just gif's which is why the quality is crap, i'll do some mpg movies in a month or so which will be better quality. These are two weeks growth. The tort looks like a slow grower, pink monti is pretty quick: Green table, and the acro behind seem reasonably fast growers: Layton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Layton trust me to be away when you post a full tank shot, I have just been catching up and found it.
