Thanks. I also turn off all pumps to prevent movement during long exposures and I'll ocassionally move corals into better lighting for the picture then move them back.

All beautiful. Nice job. I was interested in a night-time full tank/room shot to see about light pollution. We're just trying to decide what we're going to do for our next tank. We love the rimless idea and your tank is a great example. Thanks for the inspiration!

More photographic gold man. Especially like that last coral what is it? Ricordia?

Are you using feathering on your edges?

Thanks! It's an Acanthastrea Echinata
After removing the backgrounds I apply an inside shadow to eliminate any harsh lines so yeah kind of a feathering effect although I don't use the feathering feature.
