Eye 2 eye

[Nordy]

Of the fish you have had or seen, which had the most intriguing eyes? Mesmerizing jewels, or more like the Kermit the frog eyes my BSJ had? I have a Royale pencil wrasse, and it’s like there is a ring of fire in the eye, plus the electric colored lines gracing the face. The pencil wrasse and I have a good up close to the tank relationship, but he does not care for the camera. But almost any wrasse seems to have eyes that capture your attention if they are comfortable with your fascination. Anthias, Tilefish, predatory type, show me a tessellated Blenny’s eyes, How about some pics relative to close up ocular macro photography.

Beautif eyes on Blennies. I took a cool pic of my Midas Blenny recently, but the eyes were not the focal point. I miss my Oreini fish. Those were neat on another really great fish!

Banggai Cardinalfish have these giant eyes camouflaged by a vertical black line. Beautiful in-person, where you can see the eye movement.

I’ve always had a curiosity of Banngai Cardinal fish. Seem peaceful, like to hang out in the middle of the water column, mouth brooders, very cool looking. I got a new 33 AIO setup a few months ago, could be a future fish I add. Thing is, it is a brand new tank and putting off stray voltage from the included equipment.

@Nordy , Are you on a GFCI circuit? Hope so! Also, get one of these:

The only fish I look at the eyes of in my tank is my Desjardini tang.

Hi,
I do have a GFCI installed in the room with my 3 tanks running on a 20 amp circuit. I will delve into all those links you posted soon, I appreciate your concern and electricity I still that subject I don’t grasp greatly.

Bet they’re beautiful, they are amazing with their colorations, patterns and what makes them a sailfin tang. I love my purple tangs face, eyes aren’t noticeable, but I love the speckled dots around the eyes and mouth.
I would like a New Caledonia sunrise Anthias someday. Here’s a pic of its eyes.
