Not at all ! Around here they're actually really, really hard to find. Their actually a little more expensive then most discus lol.


And thank-you people! I appreciate the comments. :D

Nah, these are all in different tanks actually. :)

alright, I must know. What lens and setting are you using to get the pictures. I try takeing pictures of my fish and everything always ends up blurry.

I like the turtle!

I took these a little while back, so I can't remember exactly how I executed them.

As far as lens - It was my trusty 18-55mm IS kit lens lol.

I usually stand back from the tank a little and zoom in a bit - Adds to the DOF. As far as settings - Depends on the light available. All my tanks are pretty well lit, as they're display tanks. And I usually have my 430EX II shooting backwards or straight up to add some additional light.

Shoot at around 1/60, ISO-400, aperture - Depending on what I'm shooting.

Depends on the fish though - If they're super quick, you could definitely up the speed. But you must realize, I probably got about 10 bad/blurred/OOF shots inbetween each 'good' one with those settings.

It's all about patience lol.
