Great pics, do you take them with a flash or with lights on/off, in other words how do you get them sooooo good

Thanks for the comments. I took the pics using our Canon EOS 300D dslr and I think all of the above ones were on auto setting with flash. Except the full tank pic which was taken on manual and I had to fiddle a bit. Not sure what I did tbh, Ian is trying to teach me how to take proper pictures. I'm pretty sure all of the above are just down to pure and simple luck ;)

My theory of taking good pictures is - take hundreds of the same subject and one is bound to come out ok. lol

Gilly I am going for the same aquascaping idea but I had this in my head before I seen your pics - honestly :)
