Need help with lenses

[marsh]

I have two lenses:
Nikkor 20-200mm 2.28G
Nikkor 28-70mm 2.8D

Do I need a macro lens to take good macro shots in my tank?
If so any recommendations?

I own a nikon 105mm macro lens not the new vr this is just the
af lens and the difference in it and my zoom lens was amazing!!
To answer your question I would get a dedicated macro lens as you will see a very big difference as you would see the subject at a true 1:1 instead of 1:3.
Which camera do you have?

Awesome camera!!!
If you want a great macro lens for that camera I would get this

or if you want if that lens is to much money get this one:

The Sigma 150mm is in my opinion the best bang for the buck out there period!!!

Just bought the Nikon 105mm...I was looking at that one before I asked the question. Just needed someone to confirm/hand hold.

Thanks
