Help...
« on: December 01, 2012, 07:56:43 PM »
I really feel like an IDIOT here, but I have a small group these, the fish on the bottom of the pic, and I can't for the life of me remember what the hell they are. I got them from Robmc over a year ago. They were very small when I got them and now there getting a little size and clolor. This is the first step to me becoming more serious with my fish keeping. This time I will be writing it down. Sorry the pic is poor quality, the best ive gotten lately.

Did you google for examples?

IMO, the picture is too fuzzy ... for focusing on fish in the tank, I typically guesstimate the distance they are from the camera lens, then find a rock, focus on the rock at that distance and while holding that focus snap a picture of the fish. Focusing on fish directly unless they are rather large is just impossible IME.
