Saintly's "purple rain' added HD vid

Re: Saintly's "purple rain' ?

They are, aquadistri and superfish are two sides of the same overall. The spectrum is so nice. My only reservation is I've never changed a bulb but they appear to be pretty difficult to do so needing a special screwdriver. I could do with another 18w one actually, none on ebay recently though.

A little steep but I'd say worth it, the quality is unmatched.
 
Re: Saintly's "purple rain' ?

I reserve my judgement on that till I see it! I know you're a metallica fan and are all "non blacker than" :twisted: :lol:

Nothing to concern, if you buy the replacement bulb you will also get the special screw driver

I'm loving what your doing with the video work Mark - very inspirational.

For me I'd rather have a front-on vid of the tank on the big screen, and ditch emmerdale - that'd give a cool transition ;)

Thanks Tony. A real trial and error path for me I'm afraid, regards to video.

A wonderfully exciting prospect though.

Thinking in terms of 'video' is so different to 'still'
 
Re: Saintly's "purple rain' ?

A little update. To be frank, i leave this tank well alone. more to see what happens if i don't care for it. The only thing i do is top up 1 per week.

it's a tad untidy, but the look I'm liking. foreground needs trimming though.

just to remind you, this tank is no ferts, co2 and low light.

The HM is really surprising me, as i thought it was in the 'High light' camp, but know, it's doing great...up to it's invasive ways.
 
Re: Saintly's "purple rain' ?

Lovely.

I like the unrestrained wild feel.

Incredible for such a low-maint tank.

Super photos too, just for a change! Loving the ripples in particular. Shame the main fish is out of focus in the second shot - tut tut, Mark!
 
Re: Saintly's "purple rain' ?

That is wonderful. I really like the unkempt look of this one.

it's surprised me George, thats for sure. We all Know EI works, but i'm becoming a fan of the 'low tech' side of things too.

Re: Saintly's "purple rain' ?

I think tomorrow, I'll get some better shots. the previous were taken with 1 light. illuminating just parts of the set up. another light, angled should help to catch the fish a little better.

George, you are right though. that fish looks wrong and sticks out now you've pointed it out.

i'm going to try a few wide angle shots to see how that looks. :geek:

The ripples were created by the infamous hair-dryer. It's funny how many effects you can get, and even placement of the head is actually quite important. many shots did come out wrong, just because of bad hair-dryer use.
