Hey guys, So after 2 busy years of working and rehabbing our new house, I finally got around to start work on the tank setup. I bought a new tank about a year ago and it has been sitting in my garage since then, waiting for me to finish work on the basement. The tank is a peninsula style setup...

So I'm wondering if anyone has a half a table space they could spare at the CMAS swap coming up. I'll pay for it, obviously. Or maybe anyone has a small frag tank setup that could possibly be substituted with my larger frag tank and we could share the tank space?

So I decided to take a few shots using my 2005 Canon Rebel XT. The shots are taken with a 55-250mm zoom lens. I used the RAW format, ending up with about 10mb per shot. This is the best detail I could get out of an 8 megapixel camera. I think the acrylic does effect the focusing ability of the...
