Reply With QuoteCongratulations on this wonderful image!
This is my little clown fish that i bought last month. It was taken from a tank that had many anemones. My 12 gallon nano does not have the proper lighting for an anemone, so i guess this xneia will have to do. He loves it! He will leave this to swim around and eat, but this is the place he now calls home. Thanks for everyones vote that made this picture, picture of the month. Keep on reefing!!

Congrats and nice shot!
BTW: It looks as though one of my two clowns has started to host my pearl bubble coral. I am not sure if I should be worried that he will be eaten...
i would worry more about the clown beating the bubble to death than the bubble eating the clown.Originally Posted by rroselavy

Again, thank you all for your wonderful complements on my photo. I encourage all of you to try and submit your photos. Especially beginners. I once was a beginner too and came to this site looking for help and suggestions. I thank all the site moderators for their pod casts as well as the users of the site for providing additional comments and help along the way. Thank you again for all the kind words and complements. Never stop trying to better your reef! It can be very rewarding!!
Salty...Would love to get a photo in but I'm sure people have had enough times of looking at their yucky algae and that's about all I have right now LMAO! I would like to get a pick of one of my Emreald Crabs who's missing a claw but he's so sketchy and comes out only at night and ducks away when you get light near him
Also here's a question for ya regarding tips on using cameras. I have a pretty nice Panasonic camara with a great macro setting but seems to pick up on the glass instead of the object 2-3 inches past the glass. Even off the macro setting its hit or miss on the auto focus. Any tips from the crowd on getting beyond this (besides buying a digital SLR...would love one but its either reefing or photog at this point!)
Cheers!
Brian
Brian,
You can get good photos with a point and shoot. Try getting the lens right up to the glass so the focal point is in front of the glass. Also use a tripod for the best macro shots. Take hundreds of shots! I literally may take 50 shots to get 1 that I am pleased with.

Brian, me being the coordinated, genius that I am.... NOT!..... can get one or two nice pics, you should have no problems! I have a simple Sony Cyber-Shot and it has a macro that I have used. Like the lil camera, but it just has too many settings/buttons. I tried what CJo is suggesting, putting lens up against the glass and found that those were the ones that turned out. Get clinking, I need you to encourage me some!
