Cool Night Life tank pics?

Does anyone have pics of their tanks during night time when lights are out? I would like to see some pics of the night life where the bugs come out. Anyone got any pics?

iits really hard to get a good picture at night because its not bright enough, and if you turn up shutter, the bugs and stuff move too much to get a good clear picture. i tried for long time... but maybe someone has a hardcore camera that can.

That pic has been photoshopped! That black is much blacker than my tank, even with the actinics off...

My pics always come back blurry.

I use the maximum which is 400
Your camera needs to collect as much light as possible.

My first attempt at a night shot. Had to turn the film speed up to 800 and the shutter down to 1/4 :
