The leopard wrasse is doing great. He eats what ever goes in the tank. He was pretty picky to start with the first week. He came around and is healthy and fat. :dance:

I would say that you would def benefit from increasing your aperture to say about 5.6, 9, or even 11 so that you can get more of your image in focus. I didn't read your whole thread so forgive me if I ask something that you have already answered but are you using a tripod and some kind of shutter release that would also help. You tank is amazing though. There's definitely a lot to photograph there

Sounds good! Thanks for your input! Yes on both....I started freehand...No Luck with that.

I think it added gold dots to the fish... What setting was that?

I was photo bombed by the yellow tang...;-)
Settings I used was f/10 - 1/60sec. - ISO was 200. I also used my speed flash.
