My deepwater granulosa. Almost 2 years in my tank now.

OK, can someone tell me how you guy's are taking these top down photo's with no glare?! I went and got one of those acrylic boxes fish stores use to hold netted fish, tried to take a picture through it and still got the glare. It works great to look into the tank but not so great for pics.
Can you give me a step by step and things needed so I can get some pics like that!

this is what i use for top down shots, i made it out of some scraps i had lying around. i dont have a glare, because i make sure the lens of the camera is against the bottom of the acrylic box, and the bottom of the box is under water.

i have to admit it is a little nerve racking standing on a stool, holding a the camera in an acrylic box floating in saltwater waiting for the 2 second timer to go off and trying to be still (that sentence gives you an idea of how long 2 seconds can be

).

Nice... would you happen to know the species or common name?

goldmaniac · 12/19/2006, 12:57 PM

I would fear my heartbreak from the inevitable disaster that would eventually happen if I tried SPS frags like this....

Everything looks SO impressive, guys. I'm floored.
