What program are you using for post processing? Sounds like your white balance is off. Start shooting in raw mode and use software that allows you to change the color temperature. I use a mix of photoshop and lightroom for my photo editing.

Using flash will also show colors that you just don't see with your naked eye.

ive been messin with the settings alot on my cam... but im just having alot of trouble getting the colors of my fish to come out on the pictures the way i see them with my own eyes...

does a high ISO diminish color?

anybody got any good ideas for better pics?
High ISO will add a lot of grain (noise) in the picture.

If you shoot JPG, then you can use photoshop to correct color. Or if you shoot RAW, then you should be able to change the color balance within your RAW converter.
