Lighting is 2 x Ecotech Radion XR15
I am using the preset AB+ on the mobius app.
The lights are 8" above the water and set to 75% max intensity.

My camera settings for the monti are:
F1.5
ISO:50
4.3mm
white-balance: auto

For the garf bonsai:
F1.5
ISO:100
4.3mm
white-balance: auto

Edit: I should add that the shots were also taken using an orange and yellow filter to remove blue glare.

Amazing pictures; thanks for sharing.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
