    I found with my camera it picks up too much of the blue from the actinics, so I need to block some of the light from above so that it is not so blue. I use old magazines and cover the top of the tank. I need to move them around a few times but eventually I will find a spot where the colors look good.
    Another thing is take your pictures at night so you dont get any window or object reflections in the photo.
