Well they have the sexy shrimp I want and I see there's a mantis shrimp madehtsobi has been posting about so hit him up and Lmk!

I usually order from www.reefs2go.com. They always have 10$ frags of zoas on sale. Over 25 kind to choose from. They have both of the shrimp your looking for. 12$ and14$.

Wish my spec v look as good as yours. Trying to get some nice color zoas but no luck yet. All the different colors are online. But don't want to get stuck with 30-50$ in shipping alone.

Buy a lot! Or group buy.

With my old 30g cube I did all LE/designer sps and zoas and I did a lot of trading/buying from fellow hobbyist. USPS shipping is cheaper and during the warmer weather its easier to ship.

If you buy from somewhere that has mini carpets, anemone shrimp or sexy shrimp i'd be down for split shipping.

Damn you man, after reading through this article I had to get one of these for my EcoPico. Ordered one and it came in with a solid red center with a green rim. Totally sweet, and now I'm hooked on finding all different colors.

Sweet, now the rest is just post processing to your personal taste. There's no right or wrong or good or bad, just mainly preference..

I always go back an forth when it comes to this part.

with my photo the subject is dark and not well lit but when I adjust to change that it looks over exposed.

Maybe it's just me.

Tried shooting with those settings and still got pretty dark pics but if I bring it to 1/60 1/80 the pics are better.

Getting a better grasp of this camera thing...

Try bumping the iso up to 400 if its a bit dark..

I'll give it a try this evening, went back to work already.

I've tried to upgrade but it won't, the firmware states for J1/V1

When I add it to my sd card it does nothing and doesn't give me the option to run

Ahh, you have the J2, nevermind.,. I thoughtyou had the J1.. Sorry.
