#1 Pretty white.

#2 Little more of a windex look, which I don't really like but looks OK?
What do y'all think?

I feel like the white makes the color stand out more.

I love horses!!! I use to own them but don't anymore.
We don't have property but my daughter decided she wanted horse lessons. She had the option of staying in archery or taking horse lessons. She decided she can shoot archery in the backyard, she can't ride horses back there though.

Does anyone have advice for taking photos of fish? I have tried many times and there is not one that look well
I've never been a good picture taker especially with my phone.
Sometimes I just get lucky.
Tim knows about that stuff.

Nice!
Always like playing in my tank ;)
I've never glued anything so let me know how it goes.
I glue some stuff but usually not unless I'm attaching them sideways. Otherwise I try to wedge them between rocks.

Bluer looks "less bright" but has more usable light from everything I've heard. I prefer the corals under blues with minimal white personally. When I ran MH I was running 20k with moonlight LEDs and actinic T5VHO supplementals.

More color, less "pop". For pictures white is better, for color glow blue is better. In my opinion which is biased so you're not wrong!

Tell them to sit still.

Fish are the hardest critters to photograph!

If you take a video you can take stills from the video. Taking a focused picture of a moving fish is VERY difficult. They move in and out of the focus plane constantly and if you use auto focus it'll jump to the glass and rocks and floaters in the water column...

This is a great idea, I'll try it tomorrow.

Yeah I've always tried to wedge them into spots and let them attach themselves.
