Beautiful fish and great pic! You were tracking that sucker with some speed when you snapped that shot.

He's got a pause button on his tank.

Gimbal + burst fire = 1 or 2 usable shots in a 100. I'll occassionally get one like this by accident, but I sure wish I could say it was skill.

Now you just need one of those for life. I may try to design one. If I am successful, I'll sell one to you for my "Friends and Family" price which, generally, gives about $.38 off!

That ruby longfin's hat looks like clipart. I think it's fake, unlike @OrchidMiss 's gaimard's fluffy, very real Santa hat. Kudos on training your galaxy wrasse to wear a hat, Suzie.

I love my dad very much. But things were rocky when he called my wrasse a "gourami".
So here is my "official" entry: newly discovered in Florida Gourami Wrasse.

Great, now I have to train my wrasse to wear a hat. Keeping up with the Lockeses...

Amazing fish and photo. How big is he? He looks big and like he's been around a while. I would have loved to enter a photo I've taken of Tusks, but they are in tanks I maintain and not my home tank.

Not my submission

One decent shot in a hundred is about what I get as well
