Still having some issue lighting him in a way that represents his real colours but I'm not far off.

These were taken on August 24, 2009.

Thanks, guys!

Tim, I agree, but rather than take it back, I'll probably just sell it for a couple of hundred bucks.

A few update pix. 2 weeks since the last. Despite being a finicky eater, he's managed to get to 12" in length (excluding barbels).

I'm still having some difficulty lighting him. I tried a 10k t5 with a hagen powerglo and now I have a lot of yellow in the pix.

These were shot without flash.

Nice pics. Now i need to gain some of your photo skills. How do you get the aro to pop out like that. Are the lights on when you're taking the pics

Thanks. Yep, lights are on. I think if you're shooting with a point n' shoot, it's hard to pull the fish out of the background.
