I must add, turn off your filters, air flow, air stone (less movement) Best to take pics with no distraction in the background like heater filter, pics in corners, full body sowing tails, all fins, and if possible when all fins are open and showing off they stuff hehe etc...No reflections of flashes on glass...or reflections of humans, windown etc...

Also a tric, if you do have a camera were you can stand futher away and zoom in, then let him or her relax, zoom him when he or she is calm, the zoom if needed, and you will get excelllent results.

Tips given by a pro in taking the best pics on this site, but i dont know if he want his name revealed hehehe....If its ok with him then i wil had his name...

good luck smiliee

I have a tip to take good looking pix

take what wildimage ideas of no background, no filter, no air bubbles and no flash glares and the fish will not be moving around so much is to put the fish in a pickle jar.

I have to find a way to pump my fish up to showoff quality. Time to test out my new homemade feed.

I dindt mention no background...

And, with all equipment off, the fish is real relaxed... Well mine is!

You can do all the way you wish, i do my pics like this for hes calm, no distraction of bubbles, no intake tube showing etc, and i do keep the lights on top...Taking pics of just the fish, showing their beauty's etc and not the fish with tubes, bubbles distrating the eye...

Well it was just a suggestion...

good luck to all smiliee
