I use a super-duper Hasselblad - no I´m kidding

This is my simple tool

It is a compact camera Olympus Tough TG3. I think they sell Tough TG5 at the moment. It has a lot of useful things. The best is that you can point your camera to something white in the aquaria - I use the sand - push one botton and you get the white balance done. There is a macro function - the two snail pictures is taken with this function and there is a lot of other useful things. It is water tight down to 5 metres at least - I never have used the camera in water but I know others that take wonderful pictures inside their aquariums.

My two system cameras has been in the storage cabinet for years :)

For the moment - my aquaria has a rather high demand of PO4. 5 days ago - PO4 = 0.08 - today PO4 = 0. Some were between - the tube from the PO4 solution to the pump fell down from the pump. I dose an amount that should giv a concentration of around 0.06 ppm PO4 every day and I´m normally and up with an unused amount of around 0.08 ppm PO4. It looks like I´m very near the point there I can risk a real 0 PO4 and no stored PO4 in stones and sand.

It also looks like the new light has rise the growth rate of my corals - I had to rise my dosing of Cor7 today and I´m slowly building up my Ca levels with additional dosing of CaCl*2H2O

No No I´m not a good video/photographer - it is a very good camera.

Yes - I have a lot of time - I´m retired :). I´m able to start the day with a Sangria if I want and end it with a Aperol spritz

Some more photos.

But it is not me - it is the Camera that produce these pictures. But if I show 10 pictures here - I had shot 100 pictures.

As an example - I have shot hundreds of pictures of my blenny - never, ever got a good one. This - of the head - is good enough to be published - but I have try for more than one year

Man, Lasse. What am I going to do with you. Their very nice pictures. I think I'll have a sangria. You made me thirsty. I'm leaving. I'll talk to you later on. Soon I'll be grilling Carne Asada, marinaded chicken. And now some sangria. You made me thirsty. I'm out.
