thanks Parker

thanks SkimmerKing
the small cardinal are glass cardinals (Apogon leptacanthus)
it's one the few reef fish that leaves in shoal, so the more you have the more interresting they are!
we used to have 6 but just 2 survived (we got them in our previous 265g tank, we had lots of problems with that tank so we lost 4 )

This is my first video!
Please dont be too critic about it.. I have no notion of film making and even less of video editing!
a friend lent me his little MP4 video camera and I made this:

I dont know how to insert the video in my post!!!

I love that plate coral with the tree/mushroom cloud growing out of it :-)
Nice video as well. (I'm not being critical just gonna give a suggestion, try holding the camera with two hands, placing your elbow against your chest, or grabbing your camera wrist with your other hand, all of these methods can help to stabilize your shots.)
