Not to worry! I still have some 11 species to go from last shoot, and I did a few more yesterday. So plenty more to come :D

Here's the next one, Emerald Bristlenose (). Thanks to Steven Grant for the ID of this one as it was a bycatch in a shipment.

Brilliant updates again, thank you Halvard! I have downloaded all the images (from the titanic pleco) to the ones immediately above. Now, I can add them easily over the next week or so. I have taken some time to do this, please don't think my enthusiasm is waning - it is not! I am just quite busy with non-fish life now.

Cheers,

Jools

Are you using a flash or just a light?
Thank you for the kind words Ortiz :)

I use two external flashes, one at each side of the aquarium. In the last two species I posted my flashes started to act up, so they're not lit the way I originally wanted.
Next time I'm due for a photoshoot I'll snap a phone picture of the set-up and post it along with the species to give a visual explanation of how the photos are taken :D
That will be great to see,
thank you.
