hahaha nice try but thats an old tank lol i may go buy a crappy old point and shoot camera today and take some pics, i have a fuji film but its old and discontinued and i am fighting to get good pics with it i do use a tri pod with it but all my pics come out dark/blue or spotty....my camera does let me adjust the white balance but the rest of the settings are pretty basic and taking fts shots always come out dull, it seems like if i zoom in its fuzzy and you cant make out whats in the tank and thats from only 4ft away....my close ups dont com out bad but they have to be really close and on the tri pod lol heres a example and i guess a fts too lol





as you can see everything looks so far away you cant make out any of my coral, for example the carpet is around 20" in diameter, the frog on the left is the size of a large grapefruit, the elegance on the far left is around 12-14" in length and swells pretty big......but yet they seem so tiny and so blurry lol

we will see if i can get any better shots with a cheap newer camera

Meh, I don't think anyone is ever really happy with there FTSs, you can never capture everything and the overall effect is never the same. Some people would probably post nude photos of themselves over a FTS

I like the new tank. It looks like you have a lot of room for a few big tangs in there but how come there is no fish ??
