They are really good pics Mike....I can't get that close with my old Fuji in macro. What sort of camera do you use.

Nice fish BTW.

I know what you mean, even using video isn't any easier. I've actually been try to get some pics of my deformed Guppies, but every time I go near the tank, the damn Angels block my shot!

But your fish are very photogenic. I may have to put the hard word on you for some Species Profile snaps.

That would be excellant. I plan to credit any Members images, and can add watermark, and any particular credit wording you desire.

The Orange tail Male when he's in front of the leaf - plastic plants?

When I went back to have another look, I noticed you just have two fish there. My kids are unreal with the Guppies. We've had up to thirty in a tank at once, they've been able to walk up to the tank, and identify and name at least twenty of them!

I can't remember the name of fish when there's just two of them, let alone pick them from a crowd.

And I should point out, that my eldest not only can ID and name particular Guppies, She can also rattle off the names from 2 or 3 generations of it's family tree!!!

I always consult her when I place purchaces, and deaths, in my Tank Diary ('cos I never get it right).
