Try one of the new digital cameras (if finances allow) then you won't go wasting exposures because if you don't like a shot you've taken then you can delete it.
Nice pic though, what size are they.
 
i can delete pictures just after i have taken them, but the battery power is so crap i only end up getting about 10 shots out of it before it needs recharging...

I love those fish. If you don't mind me asking, how big a tank would you say you'd need for four or five of them? (Just curious, as no other bios give me decent tank siize info.)
 
They like planted tanks, i still have plastic plants and they hang out amongs them during the day, then swim about at night in a frantic yet playful manner :). You ideally should have atleast a 25-30G tank for them as whilst they dont swim about lots during the day they like the space to swim up and down when you turn your lights out.

In my 57G i have 8 of the glass cats and 6 of the african glass cats. They swim about together at night and its a joy to watch!

Ah, okay Thanks.

It's just they're what I originally wanted to put in my tank, but when I heard that they're easy to kill and got an inkling that my tank was too small, I decided not to. But platies rock, too! :p
 
Easy to kill? From what i've seen they have been fairly hardy, but then, i have 5 otos which have been moved from tank to tank and everyone says they are easy to kill... I guess my fish must be top quality, or my fishkeeping must be top quality :flex:
