A few new wrasse pictures....

[btkrausen]

Relearning my D40 to take better pictures and the last two nights have been fun. Any advice to make them better is always welcome. A few aren't the greatest but I wanted to share anyway.

Not a wrasse, but still awesome

They look good! What kind of wrasses are the last two? BTW lovely angel!

Last two are Red Sea Eightline Flasher. Thats my bigger of two females. The smaller one flashes a little but not the bigger one right now. I'm hoping that once she turns male I'll get more of a show

Will be trying all week to get better pics of some of my other guys as well. Will keep posting as I get them

The filamented is gorgeous!

Thanks Peter. He's one of the best looking Filamented flasher I've seen. I make sure to look at the ones that come up on LADD and they just don't look as good as the one I was lucky enough to get from them.

Did he have those colored, elongated borders on his tail when you first got him?

Gorgeous pictures as well as fish! Waiting a little bit more and then one of these flashers is going into my 30 cube!

Yes, but I think they've gotten a bit longer since I"ve had him.

very nice, how big is your tank and what kind of lights do you have?

Thanks. The tank is a 220 completely lit by LEDs. 108 LEDs total but I generally run 36 during the day, then 72 for a few hours mid day, back to 36, then 36 + 36 blues for the last few hours.
