Awesome Trimacs!!! All your fish look great but that female Trimac is boss.
Here is how I take pics.
You will want to shoot with the flash off, higher shutter speed means less blur, the drawback is the higher the shutter speed the less light hits the lens and the photos will be darker. For me a 1/10 second or 1/8 second shutterspeed seems to be a good balance, your mileage will bery depending on your aquarium lights. The trick is finding that balance, if your shutter speed is too high, your photos will be less blurry but too dark to see the fish, if your shutter speed is too slow, you and your fish have to stay completely still for that 1/8 of a second. Here are some more tips:
1. Clean the aquarium glass/acrylic as much as you can, waterspots and algae are hard to shoot through.
2. Take pics with all the lights other than your aqaurium lights off, this will minimize glare.
3. Take lots of pics, I may spend 20 minutes taking 100-120 pictures and only 5 or 6 turn out to be keepers.
Good luck
