fish pic 6-pak...

[nm reef]

...I haven't posted a 6-pak featuring my fish in a long time....got the urge to do one...so here they are.....what ya think?

 

[nm reef]

This is my hippo....the color is a bit off....but its a rare look at him with fins extended posturing as though he's tryin' to be aggressive...

 

[nm reef]

The tangs I currently keep.....the unicorn will be removed eventually.....

 

[nm reef]

My kewl little bi-color blenny.....I consider him to be the sheriff of the display....he cruises from perch to perch checkin' out the reef for signs of trouble....very kewl little fish in my opinion...

 

[nm reef]

I think this 6-pak may spill over to a 12'er....this is my manderian.....fat and well fed...

 

[nm reef]

My purple firefish...most of the time he stays hidden away in a net-work of caves...but normally at feeding time you'll see him out gettin' some grub.....

 

[nm reef]

This is him with his "feed me!!!" attitude...

 

[nm reef]

My recently deceased (without a trace and for no known reason) flame angel....

 

[nm reef]

My foxface rabbitfish.....normally seen hangin' out with my hippo.....I've named the pair Frank & Jessie...as in the James Brothers...

 

[nm reef]

My orange spotted goby...he also lives in a net work of caves....but he has a buddy tiger pistol shrimp to keep him busy....plus this dude is the biggest camera hog I've ever seen...approach with a camera and he'll strike a pose...every time...

One of my favorite pics...taken by accident while tryin' to photograph corals...they just swam by and I leaned back and shot it....I've got this framed on the wall in a 8x10....the full resolution pic is a beauty!!!

Last pic for now is one I've posted before....another that I've framed in a 8x10 print...my favorite hippo pic.....thanks for bearing with me and I hope you enjoy the fish photos...

i said it before and now i'll say it again,"YOU GOT THE BEST PICS"

 

[lizzard]

Just beautiful! And what clear pictures. What camera did you use? I’m looking for a good quality camera myself.

NM-So great! They are so beautiful. I couldn't imagine waking up to that every day. I really enjoyed your pictures.

Ant.

Awesome pictures. But how long did it take you to train your fish to pose for the camera like that?

 

[nm reef]

The camera is a Canon G5...and the fish know that they either pose until I'm done takin' pics or they WILL NOT be fed!!!
thanks for all the comments.......

 

[lizzard]

Nice camera but needless to say, too rich for my blood. I'll just have to keep looking..

 

[nm reef]

I actually ot my G5 at a good discount...they were removing it for the new models and discounted it to just below $400...not bad in my opinion...now if I could just learn how to properly use it....
