I don't know how to do any of that though...lol! My photography hobbyist friend is coming down the night before the funeral, on the 19th, so will ask him to fix it for me and give me an idea of how it work in "photography for dummies" language! It's a nice camera, a Fujifilm X-T10. Dad would want me to keep using it and not let it go to waste.

Update on the fish - the one that I didn't like the look of, had some swim bladder issue did pass away a couple of days after arrival, poor little dude.
But the rest are looking really good! Have spent a lot of time observing them and haven't seen anything to worry about. I'm undecided on whether to worm them while in QT, just in case. What do you think
@Colin_T and
@emeraldking ? Would you worm them just in case since I still have leftover (effective and in-date) worming meds, since they're store livebearers?
The fish originally came from Pets at Home I believe, and the very few times I've gone there, I haven't been impressed. The store here doesn't have a great fishkeeping department. The man clearly didn't know much about fishkeeping, they'd just set up a 70L tank and bought some pretty fish for the kid, then got a bit overwhelmed with numbers I think, so I doubt they've wormed them. Part of me doesn't want to put them through meds if there's no symptoms, but I'll also kick myself if I don't do it, and wind up with worms in my main tanks again...
I've usually managed to get better photos (I have before, just not recently!) by taking them at night, and making sure every other light source in the room but the tank light is off. With the sun beaming even through closed curtains, or have a lamp or ceiling light on, and you get more reflections off the front glass.
Very good point! Sometimes a tab stuck to the glass draws them out, but fish definitely do get pretty zoomy when there's food!

He does! A beautiful gold edge all along the dorsal. He's a handsome boy!
Does this mean mine are sailfins? The adults look like a marble (the male) and a fairly typical black molly female, although she does have some speckling too. She is a big girl, and sailfins are generally larger, aren't they? A friend thought my previous trio might be sailfin/black molly hybrids. I'm guessing there are lots of hybrids around? I do really like the wild traits! That Wild Sailfin and the Marble molly on the left in that chart are absolutely gorgeous.
Looks to me like the fry are going to turn out a mix of marbles and dalmations. I know it's too early to tell for sure, they can change colour a lot and these are only small and beginning to develop their colouration, but some of them have such an eye catching bright white main body colour developing some black speckles now, that I hope they turn out silver-ish dalmation molly.
I do still love guppies, so I am tempted!
