nice especially like the green severum you have... I dream of a large 100+ gal tank some time and picture posts like this almost make me change my plans for that tank .... ie amano style plant aquascaping

alot of the large cichlids don't mesh very well with that idea.... oh well in my dreams it does lol

It's great to see more of your beautiful pictures. Is that a Digi-cam? What kind of lighting are you using to take the pictures?

Thanks.

Yes, its a Sony 717 digi cam. Im using Hagen Powerglos on my tanks.

Do you use certain settings on the camera? I have troubles with the tradeoff between light and shutter speed when taking fish pics.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

Them aree some great looking fish and pics. Do you like the Sony 717? I was looking at one this weekend and was so close to buying one.

I love it Tyler. You could have bought mine off of me...I just sold it. Im getting a Sony 828 (8MP). I hate to sell my 717, but as good as this one was, the 828 should be much better.

Those are some amazing shots... I really like all the colors and markings on that green severum!

Thanks Darth :p

there has been some controversy about the 828 on digital camera forums. some think there are bugs to be worked out and the 717, although not quite as feature enriched, is a better camera for now.
