Yeah I'm going to have to move them soon because they're growing over everything around.

Adjusting what? Be more specific I'm not very smart! What's your question?

Josh, he doesn't believe your corals look like that, LOL!
I will say, I have seen these corals in person, and they do look spectacular. Josh's set-up is also condusive to these beautiful pics. Sure, he does a bit of photochop, but its minor. I know because I traded him a few polyps for a couple of my Utter Chaos, and he took a picture right in front of me. His pic was LEAGUES ahead of where mine are under my LEDs, and I have a good camera and lens set-up. Sometimes I wish I had some T5s just so I could take nicer pics, LOL.

Thanks! I hear you have very nice stuff also!
LOL! Thanks for vouching for me. Man I have to stop changing colors and photoshopping so much people are catching on to me!
No I'm not trying to insinuate that or insult you in any way your tank is amazing, I have some of these he is posting is all. I was just asking a honest question about what photo software you use, color enhancements, or brightness adjustments... as you can see I don't know a thing about cameras.

Thanks!
I use a program called lightroom and if you have the right lights all you have to adjust is temp, exp, contrast. Sometimes I use noise reduction also. I don't get insulted and hope you didn't either and I really didn't know what you were asking lol.
Here's a pic of my camera and the settings. Iso varies from 400-800, aperture from 8-22 but mostly the pic is my fav.
Wow Josh now you are giving away all your secrets

No sweat thanks for the reply. I'll definitely be following the thread. Maybe we can chat zoanthids at MACNA.
