    Canon Rebel T2i with Sigma 35mm f1.4. That lens does pretty darn good in low light.

    Few new shots. Pardon the mess in the 2nd one :)

    I got a 48 x 24 piece of black acrylic online, cut it to size and taped it to the back of the tank. Made a nice improvement.

    Tank looks good! I love the color spectrum. How do you like your lighting?
