Just saw some more small BDS shrimplets free swimming in the tank. Looks like another female just let the shrimplets go. Now one more.

I try this method before, you can get a close up shot, but it very difficult to get a steady hand and also to ask the shrimp to be still for you to focus. Hence picture will not be very clear, and can never match what Bro Koji did...

Use flash. If never use flash the picture will be grainy or not so sharp.

I did tried to use flash, but probably my camera is too lousy to be able to capture any picture close to yours......

Shutter speed also must set fast.

If your camera got shutter speed setting should be able.

I have gotten a magnifying glass to try out, now the only thing lacking is shrimps

I don't think I can adjust the shutter speed of my compact camera either, how about ISO? I think I read somewhere before that we should set the ISO to as low as possible for aquarium pictures. However for such macro shots, is it still advisable?
