I have a cheaper verson of blue moonlights

anyone have any suggestions for taking better pics of night scenes without flash? its just a table lamp with a $1.75 blue bulb from petsmart....the light fixture has a white LED light but its impossiable to take a good pic of it

Great picture. I really enjoy viewing saltwater tanks using moonlights.

I am not anywhere near where I want to be when it comes to photography but most cameras come with special features to help with night photos. What type camera do you have? I think your tank has a good nite time look to it.

Mine has 2 settings for night time..but both only with with flash...its a Canon A530

Where's you get those rocks? I really want to have some driftwood and rocks in my tank, but I shudder to think about paying LFS prices on deco. They're asking $25.99(canadian) for a "large" piece of driftwood (about the size of a small cat). They also ask a few dollars a pound on that type of rock. I can probably scavange some driftwood at the lake, and boil the heck out of it, but I live in Nova Scotia, which is just one big piece of granite. There's nothing like this type of porous rock "in the wild" around here.

thats rock is live rock. It is for SW tanks. In most canadian stores which i have seen, it cost upwards of 8bucks a pound, but it is a necessity for a reef tank.

Ah yes.. I've seen live rock, and the prices astound me, but I can understand it for such a specialized item. I've just been looking for decorative rock with this kind of look, and it's still very expensive for just a rock.

actually jason only the 2 big peices are LR.. (on the sides) the others are some other type of rock (cant remember..will call the store to ask if needed) but it was $1.79 per pound
