One from my reef tank and I find that this species is very photogenic. This is a transforming male and after completing its color change, will change its color from orange to a rosy red. K5 IIs 180 mm f3.5 (1/180 sec at f5.6, Iso 640 +flash -1ev) Crop for comp, Topaz Detail, Luminosity masks + Curve Adjustment for Midtone1, Dark1. Large version has some nice details and vibrant colors. Enjoy.................................Jim

That's one gorgeous fish, Jim. Very well photographed as well. You've really gotten the tank photography dialed in. My wife is particularly enjoying these.
