How do you get really clear pictures of your tank? All i have at home is a little digital camera but it is on its way out the door and i may be replacing it soon. Any suggestions on camera choice/photography technique?

Cheapie digi's are generally capable of taking a decent pic. i own a cheapie and it can grab an awesome shot. Patience and take lots *L*

Best way to take full tank pics i've found is either

Turn all the room lights off and anything that may reflect onto the tanks glass, leaving just the tanks actual light running. Using flash stand back so that you camera is above the tank but pointing down slightly, on this angle with practice you wont get the flash glare on the glass

Or

All lights/reflective bar tanks light, a tripod and using night settings or manual settings with no flash, you will need a tripod or at the least something to lean oyur camera on, any movement will make the pic blur
