Tips for good shots

I don't have many tips for good photo shots but one is to take out every other light in the room that the tank is in.

Turn off the flash and use a tripod. This wil give you some stability when shooting a pic. Know the settings on your camera and learn to use the macro.

Whenever possible try not to shoot at an angle through the glass. Pics will be more in focus.

Shooting at an angle is a good trick if you cant turn off the flash. Turn off pumps and let things calm down for a minute before shooting
