Hi All

This is my first post so I will show you some recent pictures of a few of my fish.
I am still learning to take pictures of Aquarium fish so bare with me and please feel free
to comment I always look froward to some input from others.

#! Hap Fryeri

#2 Protomelas sp. "Steveni Taiwan" (Taiwan Reef)

#3 Placidochromis electra

#4 Aulonocara stuartgranti (Undu Reef) Blue Neon Wild Caught

#5 Gold Peacock (Strawberry Peacock) Hybrid

#6 Aulonocara Turkis

These are just a few of my fish I have a 90 gal and 55gal Hap Peacock tanks as well I have three small grow out tanks.

I am looking forward to your comments please let me know what you think...

Hi All

Thanks for all your very nice comments ... I do love the African Cichlids especially the ones from lake Malawi.
I am still new at fish photography though and still need alot of practice..

I'll post some more pics once I have taken some that I like.

Do any of you find that you need to take 100 pictures to find 1 that you actually want to share with others?
It seems to takes me at least that many if not more.
Any tips on Aquarium fish picture taking would be helpful. Take in mind I have a relatively
cheep camera with only a few variable stettings available. Its basically a point and shoot type of camera with a few extra's.

Again thanks for all the nice comments I really appreciate them.
