Nice close up of your Otto Benny. Cool to see the features so well, I've got a bunch of these guys, they are great.

That's a great picture! ****I love the detail! ****What kind of camera do you have? ****I have a Nikon D70, but haven't tried it on my fish yet.

I was never successful at keeping otos alive. ****I've had two (separately) & both died within a couple of weeks after I got them. ****The second one lived longer than the first (and ate more algae).

Thanks guys for the kind words.

I'm using a Canon Digitla SLR and these little fellas do tend to be good models and stay still during photography.

Cheers,

Great shot. Love the lips. Almost kissable.

I got my Cannon Rebel 6.3 Megpix for Christmas right before we started moving. I found my old 35mm so now I can use those lenses with the digital and try to get a few good picts of my own. Hopefully I will get a few minutes in the next week to get a few shots and get them posted.

Feel free to try and get a few more and post away. Im sure we will enjoy.
