I have the same kind of tank I just bought at Petco last night here in Plymouth... Now I need to build it and fill it.

Do your fish get along good together ?? I still have to figure out what I'm going to stock.

I like your tank its very cool, I like the black gravel.

My 55 used to be set up very near the same (its SW now!!!)
Try using a tripod

I think you might get better pics too if you cleaned the drip marks off the front of the tank? Just spray some windex on a paper towel and wipe it down. Also, my pics were blurry all the time, and I founf on the front of my camera, a little switch, one side was a flower and one side was mountains. I switched it to the flower and get MUCH clearer pics now! Good luck and cool tanks!

the flower indicate macro. digital macro is used in taking high defintion up close shots. As for the tanks. i love the stocking but the 55 has no background!!!!!

Yup everything gets along just fine. Thanks for the picture taking tips, I will give them a try. Also you are right I do need a background. I was thinking a plain black background.

yes, plain black or dark blue looks better than anything else imo

Great looking 55. I like the dual filters and ruins ornaments. And that's my dream aquarium-huge tank with many tiny fish. For a background on all of mine I just painted the back black. And covered the paint with clear contact paper to protect the paint from getting scratched. If you want to change the background, the paint will scrape off pretty easily-doesn't stick to smooth glass very well.
