Thanks! Probably rainbow chalice, you can see the new eyes forming in the photos that you cant see visually in the tank, before they develop color.

Been a little while, here’s some bounce ****!

These are awesome! I come from a graphic design background, but I recently took on photography duty at a fish store/coral farm. I know enough to be dangerous, but definitely no professional...basically enough to know how what the manual exposure settings do, and generally how to use them. Here are a few of my recent favorites.

Thanks, I'm working on it. I feel like I could do better if they would either give me the keys to the lighting so I could have a photo mode, or just have a set of T5's I could easily move around and plug in when I want to throw some full spectrum white at it. A few of their tanks are almost 100% blue LEDs, and it's absolute HELL trying to white balance them, even with the flexibility afforded by shooting in RAW.
