cookie extreme Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 all of them with out being rude. Pic's 3,4 maybe photoshopped a little too much compared to the others? even your tank looks so much more real and better then those!!!! please tell me where to get one same here! i would also like on of the acro's where only the outer tips show colour and not the whole growing colony How do i copy them?

wasp Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 I know what you mean they are soo yellow. And look at the shape of them, they like fast forward arrows, not sure what species they are, definitly photoshoped. :lol: :lol: Sheesh & I thought they were fish! :oops: Anyhow a piece o this would be cool in my tank if someone can just tell me where to get it. Obviouslu it is not photoshopped nobody would commit a conspiracy like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasp Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Yes that Reefer Madness one is photoshopped also, but not to the same extent as the one I posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lduncan Posted June 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Of course, because it's very difficult to get a photo which closely resembles them. Photoshop usually makes them look more real. These corals do exist in vibrant colours. They are hardly turning brown corals into multicoloured corals with photoshop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasp Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 You think this is an honest resemblance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Wow, that tank's a beauty! Japanese by any chance yes Layton, how big do you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lduncan Posted June 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 I'm after some long branchy type, rather than round bolder stuff. I might come past the shop early this week sometime anyway. Layton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lduncan Posted June 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 You think this is an honest resemblance? I said that is usually the intent. Sometimes it doesn't always work out right. Either way, you can tell that it's a tricolour, green base and purple tips. Layton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puttputt Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Personally, I think looks sand looks nicer, but the theory behind BB makes too much sense to ignore, presuming your a sps nut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lduncan Posted June 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 It can be done with sand, it's just a LOT more work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie extreme Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 why not spread a very thin layer of silicon on the base plate, sprinkle with your favourite coral sand etc, let it dry and then vaccum the loose bits out. voila BB with sand and no detrius trap, and you can blast it with as much force as you like thats the way i will do it next time. makes the placing rocks safer too as nothing slides.
