psusocr1 - epaullette shark, yellow stingray, purple tang, sohal tang, snowflake eel, miniatus grouper. I run 2 96 watt power compacts and a 72" NO light (don't know the wattage). When you say exact, you want inverts and polyps too?
Cartman - you forgot to add LOL. About 5" diameter

The star in the pics is a sandsifting star. He made a rare appearance above the sand. I also have a large tiger snail and a chocolate chip star. As far as polyps, I have various mushrooms, star polyps, buttons and one rock with some small zoos.

I know this is probably a rookie question, but here goes: Have you all tried setting up additional lighting just for pictures-like a studio would? If so, what kind/color lighting did you use? ***)

Are you getting blurry pics because of the fish moving too fast? Or are you not steady enough? If not steady enough try getting a tripod. Or if your cheap like me just press the camera to the glass. That actually works really well, but you're a little more limited as to what you can take.

My blurry pics are because my fish are in constant motion. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.
The flash pics are clear but they don't show the lighting and colors as accurately as I'd like.

I know which pic your talking about I thought the same thing. Its taken at an angle so you get a reflection of the bottom of the ray on the glass.

I think you just do it on purpose so you can post more pics of your super sweet tank and make the rest of us sad
