wow.. incredible pics!! may i know what kinda camera do u use for this? and tips?

I use the camera on my Samsung Galaxy S7, set to Pro Mode, and use the Polyp Lab Coral Lens when taking night shots under all blues.
I do some minor post editing, to sharpen the images, as well to add contrast/shadows, when needed. I find the Samsung cellphone cameras leave a very very slight gray layer on their pictures (which sometimes dulls the actual colour of the shots).
I also turn off my return pump, and power head a couple minutes prior, so the flow doesn't interfere with the focus in the shots.
 
When I bought this Acropora frag earlier this month (April 2nd), it was only 2 colours. It had a violet base, that faded to purple-ish blue tip.

Over the course of this month, the frag began developing some more hues, and this is what it now looks like on April 13th.

Will continue to log the development of this frag, and post updates if there's anymore changes! Pretty nice score for a no name WYSIWYG $10 frag, if you ask me!
