Nice...

Im a Greg Rothschild & Travis Staut fan...

Id add practice "a nice steady hand" and be creative...

Look to capture wicked "moments" (e.g. crabs riding on a snail), contrasting backgrounds, action shots (e.g.fish yawns)
IMO these will separate a good photo from a classic.

The tips on macro shots are RIGHT ON.

Turn pumps off.
Use tripod.
Use timer setting.

Even a cheapy camera can take some amazing shots.
