Very nice pictures.

What lens did you have on your 20D?

Sorry for the lack of updates... lots of goings on, check the blog if you're curious.

To answer questions - I use a 28-135 usually, and sometimes my 17-85.
And the temp is so high because the tank is on the second floor of our townhouse. It's been up to 85 in the middle of the day lately. This is the time of year when I keep a bag of ice in the freezer to dump into the tank when it gets really hot. Eghhh.


Here's a quick tank tour I snapped.

Those are some fantastic pictures:grinyes: I see what you mean about why they're called comets. That is a particularly good photo!

Thanks guys!

I just had to dump three ice cube trays worth of ice into the tank... up to 86. It's hot today! No wonder they look hungry. Imagine what those metabolisms are like right now.

Almost a 6 month bump...but worth it for the pictures.

Those are some gorgeous goldfish. I miss the ease of caring for goldfish. Keep the filtration up and PWC regime was pretty much it. And they didn't cost very much either.

We had a feeder that grew up to be about 6 inches long. Lived for about 10 years.
