Nice looking fish, Rally. Great pics too. I love that first one of the Frontosa. I want one!!

Trixie · 05-04-2008, 05:59 PM

I think you take some of the most beautiful photos of fish that I have ever seen!!!!
Nice fish, btw.

Emg · 05-04-2008, 06:04 PM

Nice pics Rally ! Those fish are awesome....love the frontosa !

Rallysman · 05-04-2008, 06:09 PM

Thanks guys and gals

You can call me Levi BTW

I have had that frontosa since he was 1". He is now pushing 10". Time flies!!!! I've been getting back into the groove of taking pictures. As I get more I'll share them. Thanks for the compliments.

Hey Levi, love that leading title!!! lol I agree with Susan--your photos are clear, great angles of the fish, and the surrounding surroundings are well thought-out. So many photographers focus on just one aspect; it takes a real artistic eye to pull everything together (sorrry, artist in me got carried away). And the front really is beautiful; ya, time flies!!!

Rallysman · 05-05-2008, 05:25 PM

Thanks very much the kind words! I do appreciate it.

Gorgeous fish, Levi. I always wanted to have a huge tank so I could keep them. Is that a steatocraneus in the second pic? It looks really nice, too.

Great pictures! I do have one question--in light of the teasing title--these are not ladies right? They are male fish?

Yes it is, and thanks

I have a few of these guys that live with the frontosas. It's funny because they pop their heads out of the rockwork randomly like the game where you whack the gopher with a hammer.

That's correct. They are males showing off their lovely nuchal humps

rosita · 05-06-2008, 06:07 AM

LOL Sar, he didn't tell you they also call them "koks"!!!!! The humps, that is.

Oh great!! That keeps me from giggling whenever I see it (yes, sometimes I'm a wee bit immature). Thanks for correcting me, Levi!!!

joephys · 05-07-2008, 06:40 AM

Sheesh, between this and the whole thing about the pot plants, it kind of makes me wonder about you...

I am just joking
