Looks good- I like the composition and the corals look awesome. Color-wise it looks a little on the blue side- you may want to experiment with the white balance settings. What camera are you using? Looks like you got excellent depth of field but it may have been at the cost of a slower shutter speed- you could compromise a little and probably get the corals sharp and the fish sharp too.

Thanks Greg. This is a Sony DSC-H1. I had the white balance on auto on this shot. What's the best way to set the white balance, piece of paper under the lights, pvc pipe in the tank or the coffee filter trick, and how do you do the coffe filter thing? That does look very blue, these are 14k hammys w/ actinics, kinda blue but not that much!

I'd try the white piece of paper/plastic under the lights first since that's the easiest. If that doesn't work the coffee filter would be next in line- I haven't done it myself since I shoot everything in RAW mode but your camera doesn't have that so you'll have to work it out via the manual [custom] wb. For the coffee filter trick I assume you just put the coffee filter completely over the lens and point the camera at the lights, or at something white [bright] in the tank.
