Just a clownfish

[Blazer88]

My anemone decided to poke out from a different side of the rock which allowed me to get a better view of my clowns. I haven't taken any tank pics lately so I gave it a go. Taken with 30D w/EF-S 60mm F/2.8. Enjoy.

Can you provide your camera settings?

 

[Blazer88]

The EXIF should still be intact but here it is:
Shutter priority, 1/80th, ISO 800, F/5, E/V -1.

Man oh man! Your awesome bro!

Did you use a tripod and can you walk me through how you set it up?

I am just starting to take pic of my new clowns and anemone and need help!

Thanks for the comments guys. Rev, I don't generally use a tripod when taking shots of fish. It's VERY important to keep perfectly perpendicular with the glass and I find a tripod limiting when taking shots of fish since I'm moving around. Just use a shutter speed that is fast enough to eliminate camera shake and freeze motion. I used my EF-s 60mm F/2.8 macro lens so 1/80th was fast enough. Just set the camera to shutter priority and have at it. I probably took 20-30 pics before I got one that I liked with the composition and lighting. Most of the pics only had his head poking out, I liked that I got his fin in there
