Just wanted to post up some pics from my old 225g tank. I hope to have some updated shots once I start stocking my new 187g tank.

great shots!
 
What lens did you use? Can you talk about your process for taking these? Did you do anything special with lighting use any filters etc?
 
Very nice, great to see you making a comeback Sir! Your 225 is one of my all time favorites.

Those were shot with a Sigma 105mm macro lens on an Olympus Evolt 510. My new camera is a Canon 5D Mark iii and it is pretty sweet!! I also have a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro lense.

No lighting filters for those shots.....here is more info on what I typically do when taking shots of my reef:

Awesome and thanks for the link. I shoot fuji x cameras and am looking at getting a good macro lens. Fuji doesn't have a long macro so I will most likely have to use another lens with an adapter.
