Fascinating shot

Must teach me how to use my camera, I always suck with such pictures, yours is like every individual fish is being focus at the same time.

Default DING DING DING JACKPOT on 160110

I finally get to get the chance of shooting my pair of Xeno. Ornatipinnis' mating ritual today.


This is a picture of the male "dancing" with the female in a "Merry-go-round" action:



This is a shot of the male's color in intense mode, because the male is usually silverish with two turquoise lining on the side.

Talking Male Flaring mode.

Finally, this is how the male really look like when flaring.
A seldom seen mode with yellow on the cheek, dorsal with black marking from top, secondly gold and followed by shiny pinkish red(appears only when mating) and some gold spots at the back of the dorsal.
Bluish pelvic fins and striped gold and white ventral fin which appears on the tail too.



Hope Y'all enjoy and thnx for viewing
