One comment about macro lenses (JR can correct me if I am wrong here), but for those that have deep (front to back) tanks like I do, make sure you get one of the higher focal length macro lenses. I have a Tamron 90mm, and I have issues reaching (for macro purposes) things that are say 12" from the closest side of the tank. Kinda ruins the whole macro experience.
guys, would the extension tubes help in a situation like this?

I love the 100mm lens. The only issue that I see with me using it is that it might be too much of a macro for what I need it for. A 60mm me do better for me? Since I take top down photos the tripod has to be really high to get the complete coral in the picture. the 100mm is very intense.....

no, youre fine, get a topdown box from melevsreef.com.
Then use one of your regular lenses in the top down box if the macro is too much.
Trust me, you will get the hang of its strengths and weaknesses.

I assume I just need a magnification "filter" to put on the lens yes?

I have elements 5 I believe and a Nikon D40X. Every time I try to open a raw image file all I see is a bunch of programmers gibberish where the picture should be. I don't even see the adjustment controls. what the heck is going on here. Please help me, I'm running out of hair to pull out.

try uninstalling and reinstalling the software, and then go to adobes website and download the latest version of camera raw.
its free
try that, and let me know.

CS2 will not open RAW files from current DSLR's, if it did, you wouldn't buy a new version.
So CS3or CS4? I might as well as get Photoshop Elements, it's cheaper.
