Another critter playing peekaboo! This is a fun shot! I like the bright colors he's sporting.

I myself am a aquarium hobbyist and I know how difficult it is to shoot your fish.I tried shooting my parrots so many times never managed to do so.The discus looks real good.How did you manage the lighting,mine always have a blur.
