To the far right is the Frog Spawn (soft coral) which is absolutely lovely. and to be honest I can't remember what other one is in the middle.

here is a better shot of the Frog Spawn. If you were closer I would frag it to you for free. Becuase it's way to big for the tank now!

alright i have to know what kind of settings do you use when shooting your aquariums? My pictures just dont do my aquarium justice. What kind of white balance do you use? or any PP that you might do after you've taken the pic.

WOw that looks amazing.. Wish you did live closer!! Would love to have a frag!!

Might go check my local store and see if they have any. Thanks for letting me know :)

3/4 of the time I shoot in full auto.. does the job.

But some extra tips - turn off your powerheads and let the tank settle for a bit. Then take shots.
Clean your glass too!! Thats pretty much all i do.

But i do shoot in raw sometimes and makes white balance east to adjust.

Think i may have left exif data intact for my shots.
