Very nice, that first pic is astonishing! What kind of camera and lens are you using?

Love the first shot!

First shots amazing. I also love the one with the clown in the frogspawn.

That first photo is awesome, try increasing the fstop to 14-18 range and see if it gives you better depth.

Very nice.

I agree with the F stop needing to be a little higher...first shot is out of focus...nice subject matter though!

I love the clown pic

Is it just me or does the first pic look like you have red bugs?

 

[bchbum189]

you would be correct, fortunately its not in my tank. They def cant be seen with the naked eye, i looked for 5 minutes without luck.

That coral is very nice! I have a tiny piece like it but not as colorful as yours. Hopefully it will color up.

Gee that red candy cane is getting me green with envey. I constantly see pictures of red candycane but everyone I seem to find available is either blue to green in coloring.

Who knows where to get red candycane frags?

Great observation.....can't believe I missed them.

I just reread my post, I am was talking about the first coral. What kind is it BTW?

With macro shots try a smaller aperture. To keep the shutter speed high enough to avoid movement raise the ISO

Look amazing, except for the red bugs that is...bummer
