I always have trouble getting any decent pics of my fishtanks. I have a kodak digital camera. I just can't get a pic I am satisfied with. They are 6 ft long so I always end up taking a pic of half and half and stick them together!! It's driving me insane!! Not to mention the fact that my fish hate photos. Even when I sit in the room for a long time barely moving, they see the camera and hide!! Little Stinkers!

It is difficult. I try to shoot the pics at an angle to keep the flash from bouncing back into the lens. To take a straight on photo of the entire tank try using a tripod and a slow shutter with no flash.

Thanks. I sometimes use the flash and don't other times. I will have to borrow my mom's camera. She's got the serious hook up. I will have to give that a try.

If you have a tripod use it.

A wider angle lens will save you from merging the photo's together.

Turning off your pumps helps clarity on the longer exposures.
