I tried to get some pictures of some of my frags I got at the meeting and they look bad. I tried using the tripod but I had to zoom in so far that you could see the pixels. I am assuming that the digital zoom reduces the picture quality.

Yes the digital zoom will, optical zoom normally does not as bad.

I guess if I plan to get good at taking pictues I will need another lens. Is a macro lens what I need and where can I get one?

Yeah, skip the digital zoom. Zoom as much as you can with the optical and crop the picture for the subject. That's what I do anyways. Zoom as much as I can, and crop out the rest.
The two lenses I've seen for coolpix addons are macros/telephotos. The only thing the macro would do for you is allow you to focus closer. The telephoto lens will magnify the subject, but will increase your focal length.
They sell a bunch of the nikon add on lenses on ebay, I don't know anything about them.. just did a quick search and saw a bunch.

Here is a frag that I got Saturday. This one is from Terry. I used all of the optical zoom and cropped and resized the picture to see what it looked like.

What kind of editing software do you have Scott?
This is what I got from what you uploaded using photoshop:
I resized it, adjusted the levels, and used the filters to despeckle and sharpened it.

Looks pretty bad. I tried another using a different program and it looked justas bad. I will have to look for a lens.

Sorry, probably just not enough megapixels to get away with that trick.
I used a magnifying glass sometimes with my olympus and that worked pretty good as long as things weren't too far back in the tank. I had to be able to focus the magnifying glass on it.
