Isn't that the truth! I went to the Baltimore aquarium a few weeks ago and taking pictures was nearly impossible. The fish are swimming, so you have to have a fast enough shutter speed to catch them, but it's so dark you need like a half second exposure minimum at the maximum aperture and sensitivity. I have dozens of pictures of dark blurs or reflections of the flash in the glass.

Here's a typical shot I got along with a somewhat better one.
