Hey, what is that yellow fish at your feeding clip? It looks kind of like an Atlantic Blue Tang. I recall you wanted one...did you finally get one?

I've been working a bit on this month's contest. So far, taking a decent photo of feeding time is very challenging. Any picture just looks like a bunch of fish....A video submission would be better...but capturing all that chaos in a still photo is proving to be tricky.

Not my entry..Still working on it. This is the 10 seconds BEFORE feeding....

Untamed, I think that is a beautiful shot capturing the intensity of the moment waiting for their supper! So many beautiful fish in one shot!

Is this directed at me? Those are feeding pictures, you can see the mysis shrimp. I also think people should feel free to ask questions about pictures if they want to.

I'm sure Christy's comments where directed to posts that where off topic or detracted from the thread. Not your Post.

No not at all, there were some other posts involving non-reef related photos that I deleted. I meant stick to the topic as in reef/this contest related stuff. Of course people can ask questions about the photos and we certainly encourage that. :biggrin:

Comedy is good but it was kind of taking over the thread. Its more suitable for the lounge, reefing is serious stuff :razz:

Well, being this is my first time entering, I'm sure mine will not be as nice as others, but what the heck. :) This picture was taken with my Sony Cybershot DSC-H7 Camera that I am still learning to play with. :)

This is the 'Flake Feeding Frenzy' before the Garlic Dipped Mysis Shrimp hit the tank. :)

This is my entry.
