Fish Show Pics I

[Molino]

I took my camera to the Fish show in town (Edmonton) this weekend and managed to get some decent pictures. Most of the pics I took were of cichlids, but I do have some others as well so thought

German Red Peacock:

Lionfish:

This guy won best in show, and was labelled as Sciaenochromis Fryeri:

Telmatochromis vittatus:

Clown Fish:

Rainbowfish of some type:

I'll post some of the other pics in thread II. More can also be found at http://members.shaw.ca/molino/Fish_Show/Fish_Show.html
Hope you enjoy!

I love the clown and hte lion.

Very nice, Nelson! The lion really stands out in my mind!

I have a Sciaenochromis Fryeri (used to be "ahli"), and he's a mean fish and only seems to 'tolerate' his tank mates. Tell ya what though, what he lacks in personality he more than makes up for in awesome appearance (he's more reflective, like blue foil, than the one in the pic).

let's extend the discussion...

what camera did you use? aperture setting? shutter speed? soup of the day?



j/k.

seriously, what camera? very nice pics.

Thanks everyone.

nvision: I used a Canon G3 with an external flash for these pics.

edit: does anyone know what that blue and yellow fish behind the clownfish is?

Great pics as usual! Makes me wish I made it to the show...

A Blue Devil (Chrysiptera cyanea).

That would be a correct assessment, Andy. The Blue Devil is a sort of Damsel. (So are Clowns...)
