Looking down pics-How to?

[Whitebird1]

How do you take a pic from above the tank looking down. I see this done to take pics of zoa frags. any suggestions?
Thanks

I just turn off all my pumps and hold the camera over the water and shoot. You have to be able to get above your tank for this though. You can also use a look down box.

underwater housing and use the timer? Haha.


How large are those look down boxes? I haven't seen/heard of them. I think I'd be afraid to use one.



Personally I'd shut off all pumps and wait a few for the water to settle then get my shot and start the pumps back up.

Though...as I don't have a tank setup.....that's purely speculation.

Melev built the best one I've seen to date. You should ask him about it.
