Not easy, is it?

 

[fishyfun&fans]

No they move far too fast and as soon as they notice it’s them your photographing that’s them gone haha

I find the best bet is to feed them and then wait a few minutes. Generally they will still be out and about looking for more food but not zipping around chasing it about the tank.

I've often thought about setting up a small waterproof camera to get some photos from in the tank

Same here like a little gopro

Lol nice and blurry. I feel your pain. I don't have small tropicals and still end up with a lot of blurry pics.

You need DSLR grade and an assortments of lens to have still pictures that are really professional grade

This was a picture I took of my betta... He would always come up to me and pose for the camera... He loved to flare when I got the camera out lol

That reminds me of a member some years ago who got a gopro camera when they first came out and he put his camera into the tank just to see what happens.

Was actually quite fascinating as you can clearly see straight out of the tank into the room and can see the tv and folks walking by. For some reason at the time I always thought they can't see out of the tank and is a sort of mirror reflection from the glass due to the water etc but of course its clear glass both way! Felt silly at the time!

And also the viewpoint of actually seeing the fish in their tank with plants and decor etc is interesting also.

I also agree, trying to take a half decent picture of your tankstocking is never that easy, gota take a hundred picture and you MAY have one or two decent pics! Hard work!

I found the thread but unfortunately the OP of that thread has not been around the forum for quite some time, the thread was made back in June of 2014 and the youtube vid of his gopro session in the tank is no longer available.

Sorry!

Aw man... That stinks

Maybe that’s an good incentive for someone with their GoPro to do a short vid of inside their fish tank
