What I really love about my planted tank is being able to watch all the fish school together, interact and swim through the plants. What can I say, it calms me :) If you've ever tried to photograph tiny fish, then you can appreciate how hard it is. I'm surprised I even got that shot of the rummynose tetras, they are a focus nightmare!!

These were shot with my 70-200mm f/2.8 from about 5ft back, zoomed in all the way to 200mm. This allows the fish to swim about as if I weren't there. This truly is my best set so far. First off, my favorite two:

And the rest

This could have been a great image had I not blown the focus. Also, the shallow depth of field worked against me here. Oh well!
