The camera helps. I got a really good camera for christmas and I still just have it set to fully auto. Me and my husband don't even really know how to use it yet, lol.
With my other camera it was really hard to get good shots. I had to hold it completely still and make sure the fish wasn't moving at all. It sucked.

i still need to fiddle with my camera to get the most out of it, but makes taking pictures fun when more than 1/1000 come out nice hehe

i have never kept puffers or aggressive fish, but as the eel and grouper get bigger 38-41 cm )12-14" )on the grouper, the puffer may need another tank, as that looks like a toby that may only get to 3-5 inches? but that is in futre

Yeah, I'm not really worried about the grouper, he's a SLOW grower. He's not much bigger than when we got him several months back. He's aggressive but getting stuck once by the toby was enough for him.

Not worried about the eel in the least. He is already full grown at about 22 inches but all he cares about is his cod filets and shrimp. Besides, he's so blind we have to basically stuff the food in his face or smack him on the head with it so he can find it....so yeah. The toby is so much smarter than him and can see so much better I think he would actively have to swim into the eels mouth.
A lot of people don't realize that while morays are voracious eaters they're not necessarily aggressive per se and they also have TERRIBLE eye site. Our wolf eel blenny on the other hand will be a worry once he's bigger since they can see VERY well, are fast, big eaters, and are extremely mean. Of course right now he's only around 6 in. long, so it's not an issue.
