I'm going to dose AA's I'm just trying to figure out the best AA's dose.

Fish photos with a borrowed DSLR and macro lens. This is really my first time experimenting with a real camera so forgive any rookie errors.

I've taken at least 4-5 pictures of each that you see above, experimenting with aperture, shutter speed, lighting, and focus the whole time. It was an interesting new way to enjoy my tank.

I'll need to learn white balance eventually as my coral shots suffered a bit from it. I find the hardest corals to capture their true essence are blue corals with contrasting white. My ice fire echinata and my blue bottlebrush were impossible to pick up the white and blue contrast on the acro in the 12k-14k lighting under LEDs.

I think I'll pull out my trusty old Sony camera and the lenses and try at some point. I just don't have anything worth taking pictures of coral wise lol

I usually have the most fun taking pictures of my clean up crew. They're hilarious.

It's that time again, still messing with the macro lens.
