Purple Gorgonia
 

Hey Jim,
Just wondering how the Purple Gorgonia will sway?

To me it looks as if it should be completeley still as it currently is, I just did not expect it too be soft and swayable!

Can't wait to see it

Thanks

Regards,
Neil

They are actually quite soft and pliable.

Just wondering if the fish swimming past will eventually have any impact on the animated movements of the 3D bacground.

If a fish were actually pecking at soft coral, they might move it around a bit.

is it just me, or does everyone seem to think that after 8b, everything seems soo much more realistic? cause for some reason, it seems that way:)

If you're talking about the background, then the moving Gorgonia is the only difference. But if you're talking about the fish, the whole lighting scheme has changed. They now have proper shading as they bend and twist, and the shiny ones (not many in a saltwater tank) have specular shine.

Hehe . This means you are now much closer to the release of your freshwater aquarium .
