OMG those candy canes really do grow fast ass heck!!!
doood!!!..
the blue zoo clonoy is at least 1/3 the size it was when i saw it!!

[nahtanoj]

yeah, the blue zoa's just had a growth spurt last week, i've been really over feeding my tank, explains all the diatoms, and they seem to enjoy the high nutrients.

Was the camera having a hard time focusing? The shots, although nice, seem blurry. I'm guessing that if it was focusing good, the small sensor in the point and shoot smeared the details together.

well, it's me holding it my tank with one hand, so i have a feeling it's more hand wiggle when pushing the button than anything, shots taken when i have both hands on it are much clearer.

Pretty pretty! I have the same problem...depending on how contorted my hand is, the shots can get pretty blurry. I've learved to take shots from various distances with various exposure settings...one's bound to be in focus, or at least pretty darn close.

That is a pretty awesome camera. i bought one for my wife, and she uses it in the pool and stuff. i thought about taking it out to the islands and see what I can do in ambient light. . . Very sharp pictures considering the lens/sensor size. Nice pics!

I have no recommendation. I was inquiring as possibly a future purchase of my own. I use a DSLR, but don't think I'll be sticking that into a tank any time soon nor do I have the funds to have a custom built water tight case.
