[AquaticLife] Photo tips wanted…
You cannot use a steady source of bright light for your photos. The fish will become washed out because of the steady source. You need to use strobe flashes, ideally two coming from the sides above the tank, pointing into the tank and two at tank level coming in at angles to the front of the tank. When you fire the shutter, the strobes go off, and you get a nicely (hopefully) colored fish. Also, be aware that there are fish that do not photograph well no matter what you due. The blue gularis is famous for not showing its true colors in photos. Also, fish with iridescent colors do not show them, or only show hints of the iridescence in photos.
