I took a series of photos last winter and had them developed and printed
through a bulk-processing service.  They came out *very* green.  Then I
took the developed negatives to a "good" photo shop and had them reprint
a few of them.  They came out looking pretty much like my aquarium.

If you've been using a cheap bulk film processor, then maybe you would
cure this problem the same way.
