Got it, I just mentioned something about that, I don't have any rubber hoods
for any of the lenses that are faster than 3.5.... maybe the camera store
has some in their junk drawer that I have been helping to keep from
overflowing.
The only fast lens I have is a 50 mm 1.9 Yashica or a Tokina 2.8F 28 mm...
never mind, I just took more boring shots than I ever wanted to of the far
part of the room.
At 400 ISO no flash.
The kit lens 3.5f gave me a 1/3rd shutter speed
28 mm 2.8f Tokina lens gave me 1/10
The 50 mm Yashica 1.9f gave me 1/30
It was 1/3rd slower than that at auto ISO, bumping the ISO to 1250 (didn't
get better at 1600) got me up to a 1/40
I wasn't able to get the 28 mm to focus, but finally got familiar enough
with the 50 mm to get it to focus at least 1/2 the time. Then I tried the
kit lens again and none of those shots were acceptable.

A collapsible rubber hood works quite well too. Press the front of
the hood against the glass, and then you don't have to have the camera
absolutely perpendicular to the glass. Some of the tanks aren't lit
very brightly, especially for things like the jellyfish, so you might
want to take your fast MF lens along just in case there isn't enough
light for decent shutter speeds with the 14-45.
