dpreview.com might help you narrow your choices.
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare.asp This will help you narrow down whats in your price range, and what features your looking for.

What you may want to do is head down to your local store and try out a few. I originally wanted an olympus SLR, but when I actually got it in my hands, I found it was way too big. I settled for the Nikon D40x, pricy ($1000), but so worth it when it came down to quality, and its ability to do nice macros. I had a fujifilm FinePix which worked really well for me. It was purchased second hand, but it worked really well.

Nature of this hobby led me to this little cool thing, besides my digital rebel from canon.

No, no picts underwater in my tank yet. Camera is still in the box I had the previous version 720sw that has been stolen/lost. Didn't have much time to play with a new replacement yet. I'll post some photos once I get to it.
