Growing! Still trying to learn this camera (SONY DSC-700) the default settings/modes arent vey fish friendly. Anyone have any good tips on camera settings? Shutter speed, light vs tank lights only, etc? Seems I only get clear pictures when I use a flash, but it washes out the colors.

The bowfront tank doesnt help :) Kinda limits the angles/space for picture taking without distorting the fish ... Someone should publish a "Photographing Your Fish" handbook on this site :)
