jorge, some great colors in the first two shots.

how large is the box that you made to shoot with, and how do you keep it steady?

its a 6"w by 5"h aryclic tube that i put a piece of arcliyic on the bottom. i had a very hard time takeing the pics with it. most likely i'm going to build another one
with handles.

That Oregon tort frag is super BLUE!!!!!!

the tort is just a little less blue. i just couldn't get a good shot of it from the top.

what if you glued acrylic strips to the top of the box, so you can push down on the box with the lens, but the strips catch on the tank bracing and prevent it from sinking?
