Here's a picture of the blue one. It's weird but every picture I take of anything in that bowfront is out of focus...is this something to do with it being a bowfront? I guess thats a question for the photography forum. Anyways here it is.

Congrats! Got your pic on the post. Easy once you know how, huh? Do you have a macro setting on your camera? Might be that you don't have it on the right setting is why it is blurry. If the front of the lens is right up on the glass then a bow fornt probably won't make a difference in it being blurry or not. See if there is a macro/close-up setting and try it with that.
It almost looks like camera shake too. Also try setting your fingers against the glass while holding the camera for stability. Try again.

interesting--I have never lost a single mushroom in my tank (t5 lighting). I just place them close to the bottom with a ton of flow (indirect) and they grow like crazy. I just got (3 months) one single red polyp yuma and now I have 4 large ones. I also never spot feed.
