CONGO is in the buildin'! - F1 Black Gorillus Umbee

[JK47]

You need more light Justin! What are you shooting at? I try to run my flash at full power with the diffuser on (or some other form of diffusion), with my camera at approximately ISO 100, F8, and shutter between 1/120 and 1/200. You shooting in RAW yet? You'll end up with a much better white balance if you process from RAW.

I had a bad day at work so my setting was .08 the camera I'm not sure I was trying a lot of different configurations.

I just shot a few at F8, 1/200 and will start a new thread with those pics. I do need some advice but don't want to derail Crimson's thread. I'll have them up shortly.

Massivore, NLS and Xtreme. Mostly NLS now that they are older.

It's been a while since I updated, but here he is. He is about 12", has grown length wise much lately, but is getting taller and thicker. You can see by my hand as a reference.

His female died after laying eggs and he is currently solo with a few random fry.

Enjoy!

Thanks bro! I can't wait to see our results after a few months of different feeding regimens, etc. NLS, NF, SD, etc...
