What is Aquarium Camera? Description of Aquarium Camera

LED aquarium lights are brilliant, but blue (actinic) light interferes with your camera sensor, changing the beautiful colors of your fish and corals into a scene from a black light filled roller rink from the 1980's.

Enter our hopeful hero, Aquarium Camera. It dreams of ridding the internet of bad aquarium photography. It's designed to color correct the actinic light from LEDs in real-time on our mobile devices, the thing we use to take photos of everything else in our lives, except our tanks... until now.

"The Aquarium Camera app is an essential tool for reef tank photography." – ReefBuilders.com

You can now stop buying pro camera rigs, shooting in raw, buying gels, and turning off your blue lights to get great and accurate shots of your tank. You don't need to spend hours in post-production or photo editing apps, tweaking the hue and lighting of each of your photos. Simply put, all you need is the Aquarium Camera and an iPad or iPhone to get GREAT photos and videos of your aquarium.

“So easy to use… Love it!!! And the color changing is realtime so you can see the screen and the real thing side by side to ensure you get the right balance.”
– Carlos Chacon, IT Manager at CoralVue

Features:

• Real-time white balance color
• Real-time RGB adjustment
• *NEW* Real-time Gel mode - orange gels are typically used by professional photographers to compensate for blue light. The new gel mode works like magic by simulating what a gel over your lens will do to your shots. It goes a step further by dynamically changing it's color based on what it sees in your shot (it's like buying millions of gels and picking just the right one for each shot)
• Take Photos or Video
• Portrait and Landscape photos (obviously)
• Digital pinch to zoom
• Touch to focus
• Manually control brightness
• Toggle the flash on/off (works great if your corals are really close to the glass in your aquarium)
• Download it one time and use on your iPad and iPhone
• Quickly access your camera roll to review shots
• Share photos or videos right from the library

Special thanks to the members of Reef2Reef.com for testing version 3.0 of the app! Over 250 aquarists tested version 3.0 prior to pushing to the app store. Check out the Reef2Reef, ReefCentral, Nano-Reef and ChicagoReefs forums to see some of their awesome aquarium photos! Super big thanks to Reef2Reef members Jason Mack, Scott Nelson, Scurvy, NorthFLreefer, ReeferMadness80G, Budau18 and Stratru362 for giving me permission to use their photos in the preview!

I created the Aquarium Camera app because I was tired of seeing posts of brilliant aquariums on forums like Reef2Reef, Nano-Reef, ReefCentral that don't truly represent the health and beauty of the fish, plants, and corals inside. It wasn't as big of a problem in the days of VHO, Power Compacts and Metal Halide lighting, but with LEDs now taking over the aquarium lighting space, we needed another solution.

Let's commit ourselves to spending less time trying to correct the lighting on our aquarium photos and videos and more time enjoying our fish, shrimp, snails, plants, and corals... oh, and doing water changes.

The before and after shots in the preview were taken at the 2017 Aquatic Experience Kessil booth, A80 Tuna Blues. The video was taken under an AquaIllumination Nano LED fixture.

Aquarium Camera Pros

ExcellentWorks really well and with a little dialling takes really good photo’s. unfortunately to get it dialled it does require using your brain which Is what I’m sure is lacking with the 1 star reviewers..Ben7WRVersion: 3.1

Just get it!!!Great app, it’s effortless to capture the true colors of my fish and coral under my AI prime HD, and if you’re reading this it’s because you know how hard it is to show your stuff off to fellow reefers even with gel filters. Hands down best 2 bucks I’ve spent in this hobby..ReVa_LoUtIoN54Version: 3.1

Aquarium Camera Cons

Nice app but desperately needs a little update loveNice app, does what it says for the most part. It hasn’t been updated in 5 years. I was on the edge about paying $3 for an app that hasn’t been touched in that long. I may get a refund. There are tons of little bugs and quality of life issues that can be smoothed out. For example, true support for the new phones and their cameras. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and the final picture quality after taking a picture is better than the stock cam but still meh - blurry grainy low quality. Hope the dev comes back!.Lamelizard101Version: 3.1

Doesn’t workThis is alright under white lighting, but fails under any kind of blue. Consider that most blue aquarium lights are at 15k colour temperature, yet the max colour temperature this app will correct for is 8k, and so it just doesn’t work..Gaz802000Version: 3.1
