The camera is a olympus stylus tough-6000 it's waterproof up to 10 feet. I stick it right in the tank.

Really nice shots for a "cheap" camera. I love the pics taken with some of the RCers but cannot drop that much coin on a camera as I have other wants/needs

***I love the color of my setosa too. Slow grower but is absolutely beautiful!
