This is the weakest part of my photo game. Any suggestions are welcome!! For some reason my top down shots always look like an illustration rather than a photo. Shooting with T6i, 100mm macro (non-IS), Avast Porthole, and 2 legs of tripod leaned against the tank (which i suspect is the problem since there is always some residual wave action even with all pumps off, can't get those fish to just stop swimming!!).
