Aquarium Photos for the Novice

[gclackum]

Need some help. I would love to photograph the fluorescence of my corals. I’m very much the Novice at photography. I have a decent although old DSLR Minolta/Sony. I understand there are filters involved, but I need the recipe. How do I take a picture of my corals under the blue light that shows what my eyes see?

I can highly recommend the add-on filter for your iPhone.

It's an Orphek lens kit, it's so good I don't even mess around with my Nikon DSLR for reef images. Give it s shot.

Wow that’s cool. What filter combination do you use to capture the fluorescence. Any pics you can share?

Lol I haven’t yet found out how to take good pics. I was thinking about reaching out to people on here when I see a good pic posted and asking them there secret sauce

A lot of people on the live stock photo contest had some great looking ones.
