    We all like to take pictures of our tanks from time to time.  Most of the time, it is from the side.  Sometimes it's fun to see it from other angles, especially top down.  Please share yours. [​IMG]
    Here are a couple to kick off this thread!

    I couldn't get any without the glare on the water from the lights. So I said screw it and finly got the balls to put my camera in the water. It's waterproof up to ten feet. Here is the result.

    Haha that's not really fair. Probably the two best reef tanks post their pictures first so the rest of us don't stand a chance /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/tongue.gif

    the top of my tank don't look like that.
    are you shutting off all your pumps when you take these pics?
    are you using a flash to get those kind of shots?

    Wow, I love the colors on that wellso! Very nice, thanks for adding to the thread! /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif

    As far as my pictures are concerned, I don't use flash and I don't shut the pumps off. I have a top down viewing contraption and it allows me to view and take pictures without distortion from the water movement.

    Bill, your corals look awesome and thanks for stopping by today!  Your underwater camera definitely works better than my top down view contraption as you don't get any glare. My shots didn't turn out as well due to that. Anyway I have a few more to share. [​IMG]
