[QUOTE="Legendary Corals, post: 7803669, member: 35295"] Thanks man, I appreciate the comment! I'm always still learning. I use a super wide lens for the big ones, it's a 24-70mm. I bought it for general photography as it's a great all in one lens, but it ended up being great for frag packs too. You just have to make sure you're looking straight down into the tank, as the water will show distortion if you're angled across the water surface too much. I use a small step stool so I can get pretty high up the tank. For the smaller pack a 50mm lens will do great. My camera is a full frame, so it allows me to "see" more with my lenses. Hopefully that helps out! You can also always take photos of each coral individually and then put them together as a collage. Here's a pack with the 24-70, taken at 70mm [ATTACH type="full"]1715474[/ATTACH] And I combined individual macro-shots into one pack via a collage. [ATTACH type="full"]1715475[/ATTACH] Cheers, Darwin [/QUOTE]
