What camera body are you using?
Your gonna laugh at me. Cause I do have a multiple DSLR but its easier for me to just use my cell phone haha.

The way I got these top down shots was using

Bubble Magus Viewer
My LAX Aquarium Orange Glasses
Samsung Galaxy S8+ in auto mode

For some reason the LAX Aquarium glasses give it good pop and then just add in a little contrast in Lightroom Mobile app.

I have that exact same setup..... except your phone says LG
Yeah I couldn't take a picture with my phone so I used an older one as an example. That's how I use it but with the S8+.

Yeah I'm sure I could get better pics o have 2 Sony a7iii and a macro lens. It just takes way to long and hard to do on my display the way the lights hang. Cell phone works good enough for this.

Thanks. All the fish are really fat so been feeding heavy lately to get the copperband beefed up. I have Moyeri Leopard also but super skiddish along with a yellow watchman goby that rarely comes out.

What are the baths for?

my moyeri is always out. Not hand fed but was always mellow. Now she paces the glass all day. I don’t think she likes the smaller footprint

fish diseases, in theory they knock off velvet brook uronema and possibly flukes

mine is out she just doesn’t like me lol, I walk up to the tank and most of my fish are front and center hoping for food but she dips into the back. She’s an eating machine tho so once I feed and back up a bit she zooms around mowing down food
