Oh, no pressure.

Tape? Not sure what you are looking at. Tank is in perfect condition.
Well.....except for the scratch in the middle of my tank from the first day.

One question though. You don't/haven't had any trouble with algae with your tank nearby that window?
Not really. Every now and again I'll get the red slime, but I'm able to control it. I have to scrap the green algea off the glass in the corners that the mag float is not able to get to, but that is not very often. Usually I have those blinds closed anyway. I just opened them up so you cans see the stand.

Hi,
I just bought a Nikon D40X, and don't know how to use it very well, either. Do you have a separate flash when you shoot in the tank, or do you use the pop up flash? I bought a series of macro lens filters that thread onto the front of the lens, and I'm assuming that's what you used, too. One thing that I did learn, to my dismay after I had already bought the camera, is that if you want to use different lenses and want the autofocus, you've got to spend the extra money to buy the AF-S lenses. Just any ole Nikon lens mount won't work. BTW, I love the shot of the big coral with a completely black background, very artistic!

the pic which the taped fish on the tank looked like you had wrapped black paper around the tank and I was wondering what happened. I now see that the lights are out
DUHH me

OK, that makes sense. I was looking at all my pics asking "What?!" The back of the tank is painted black, so yes, when the lights were off it looked like a black box (or wrapped in black tape).

Looking good. I really like the look of the tank with the canopy on it.
I just got back to the states from Germany and I am looking forward to starting my 125g build that I am going to try to make mostly everything. I just started to set up my 54g corner tank and I think that I am going to start a thread on that too, since I'm building a 50 gal sump for it and running the plumbing through the wall into the garage.
