I have been reading these boards for awhile now but never posted a pic of my tank so I am going to try it now and see if it works. By the way, I have a ton of frogspawn if anyone needs any. I am not sure how to take good pics of the tank w/o seeing the flash, but here they are.

You weren't kidding! You do have a ton of frogspawn. Have you contacted local reef members for trades or considered posting in our coral trading forum here? What else do you have in the tank?

To avoid the glare of the flash I press the lens as close to the glass as I can. If your camera has a pivoting flash you can also move it so it is pointed from an angle.
 
Wow.. I think you should change your handle to frog king :)... Very nice.. In my tank I can only get away with not using the flash if my MH are on. Otherwise I have to use a flash. I have a Kodak Sureshot..
 
I never knew anyone locally around me to give this stuff away but I just found out about a club around my area so hopefully some of them will take some of this stuff off my hands. I got the frogspawn about 3 years ago and it just kept on growing and now I need to get rid of alot of it. For fish in my tank I only have a yellow tang, 1 osc.clown, and 1 green chromis. inverts: 5 peppermint shrimp, 1 emerald crab, 1 brittle star, bunch of snails and hermit crabs, and also that black sea slug thing that you can see came as a hitchhiker on some rock, he was real small too but got pretty big now. As far as corals, the only thing I bought was that frogspawn, in one of the pics you can see some mushrooms and some kind of polyp on the left that came with some liverock. I really dont know much about corals but am starting to research them now so I can figure out exactly what I have in my tank.
I kind of neglected my tank for about 2 years but I just moved it into my new house and that started to get me back into the hobby. I am looking to upgrade my JBJ 4 x 65w power compacts to some kind of metal halide lighting so I can start keeping more corals. I just got an aquac remora skimmer which has been pulling alot of junk out too.
Probably have about 75-100 lbs of live rock about about a 3" DSB.
Its funny, when I first set-up my tank I went with all the advice from my LFS and got crushed coral substrate, fake coral decorations, used tap water, seaclone skimmer, and got some damsels to start the cycle. After a couple months of things dying in my tank and having it look like crap, I did some research online and came across this site and realized about everything I did was wrong and started changing things over to the right way. Now everything is doing well, (ex.frogspawn) and cant thank everyone enough on here for all the information. Without this site, I would of gave up the hobby years ago.
 
Yep, the Chicago club is going to go wild for your frogspawn, you should be able to trade for some nice pieces. In my club brancing frogspawn tends to be sold for $5-10 per head and is often outright traded at a better rate of course since the others corals are also reduced.
 
Wowzer! I have never seen so much frogspawn. I guess it really loves your tank.
 
Holy frogspawn. :grinyes: one of my favorite corals
