DJ-don Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 beautiful shots mate...care to share what kind of camera you using and also what other 'extras' you using for the camera ? like water proof casing, etc ? Thanks! Camera i'm using is an Olympus U Tough. It's kinda a standard digital camera but it's water proof up to 3 metres which is great!! I'm not sure how long it can last in water though. All I did was put it in SCN mode where i can take photos of dif. scenarios. I put it in snapshot for under water use. Then all i did was wait until the fish were'nt that scared of the camera and i took some photos. I also put the camera on a fluorescent setting too to help get better quality. But i made a mistake for the first two pictures putting on flash but it did take me a while to get some shots..i did about 23 and these were the only decent ones!! underwater camera- awesome idea. great photos also nice choice for first cichlids, multies are one of my favorites. and i love julies too Thanks dogboy! I plan to see if I can get shots of my plecos with this too (which is nearly impossible) and the Julies did take a hit from the multi's i thought they were all dead at one point but funny thing is that they all survived!! It's only a 2 foot tank with 6 multi's and 3 Juli's some people said that was silly to do...i have to agree but they are still eating and breathing. and plus i plan to get another tank some time in the future for my juli's too!
