Very nice!

What camera did you use? If you have questions about photography do visit our photolab forum and ask your questions there. I'm sure Poseidon can help you out with it.

Hi dob55: My tank is 100 gals. with a 15 gal sump, in sump protien skimmer and a calcium reactor. For lights I'm using coral life unit with two 250W halides, two 36" actins and 4 LED moons. This is my first attempt at salt water, tryin to do it right, the key word trying lol.

hope you have great X-mass to there dob

Those aren't that bad!

I really like your small school of chromis, they are pretty fish! When you take a full tank shot, I usually have to use exposure compensation when the camera is in auto mode, usually -1 to -1.5 does the trick.

kosys · 12-24-2006, 06:20 PM

Thanx Mike, the Chromis are nice I have a school of five. It's wierd because my two Clowns like to hang out with the school funny to see.

Yea the camera I took those with was a point and shoot thing, No aperture or shutter speed control, I couldn't even turn off the flash. Photography is another major hobby of mine. I've photographed probably around 150 weddings (by the way I hate doing weddings), done some stuff for a canadian nature magazine too. I use mainly medium format, I like my SLR's too though.

I will diffinatly get some better pics once these renovations done. thanx for advice I never tried shooting an aquarium before.

you have yourself a great christmas.

best regards
Ken

kosys · 12-25-2006, 09:08 PM
