Update - Canon DSLR

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
good start. here's my advice:

- add more light to the tank (im assuming you dont have a speedlight)
- open up your aperture for more light
- bump up the ISO
- make sure your shutter is at least 1/30 to avoid blur. faster moving fish will need a faster shutter speed
- tweak your white balance, some pics have an unnatural blue hue to them
 
The first pic is of the 240 (8x2x2). It has a silver aro (22"), CK (16"), ornate bichir, 6 florida gars and some silver dollars.

The remaining pics are of the 280 (5x3x2.5) which has the RTG and 6 stingrays. The biggest ray is some hybrid and is around 12" in dia.

Here are some more pics:

Sweet collection, especially the Asian Aro and Hybrid stingrays! I have to agree though you definetly need more exposure. Your beautiful collection is so hard to see.

Thanks. Usually my brother takes the pics. I dont have too much experience in taking pics.
