How do you take your pics? My camera only tends to focus on my background and completely zaps past my fish. 

I just use my iPhone 11 pro. I try to limit reflections / room lighting. When you touch the screen, it automatically will refocus. I take 12-20 photos to get 1x decent one. I select ones where target fish are in focus. I try to crop out hardware, bring fish closer, use basic composition principles (rule of thirds, dark / balance). I adjust most all indoor photos: shadows (-20); contrast (+20); blackpoint (+20); and vignette (+30-50)

That makes the fish in photos as close to how I see them. The only challenge is that the iridescence on some colorful species seems exaggerated.
