My 65 gallon reef tank

That picture really isnt that great cause the actinics i had to just to 1200 ISO and still no be able to stop the fish. I shoot in Raw formate so that i can control the exposure, better for fish tanks in this situation cause i shot it way darker than the picture is and lightened it up to what it would look like if you were there. I don't have a macro lens but i use to use extender tubes when i had a tank that got some decent shots. I would suggest to play with it just take like 2 hours and fill your card with different fstop with different shutter speeds and then after words look at which ones came out nice and see what you had done with the settings. but raw does help out alot. if you really want to get into it i can help you out and get you a program for the RAW pics. LMK

I would definitely like to learn a lot more on the RAW mode. I don't want it so much for the fish as I do the corals. I cant ever seem to capture the true colors of my corals. Especially when shooting with just the Actinics. LMK the name of that program if could.

We now return you to the original thread... Sorry for the Hijack Nate...
