Beautiful Amp. I can appreciate a nice looking fish I have a few fish myself. You got some very nice shots with your camers high lighting his coloration.

Thanks! You have any links to pics of yours? These are his true colors. I shot the above in manual focus, no flash F8 with shutter speed of 200 with a Nikon D90 and a 18-105mm lens. Here is the difference in color from my old P&S (first pic) to the new DSLR (second pic) from today.

Wow!!! He's awesome looking!!
Thanks!!! I love this guy. So do my wife and kids. He is the only solo fish in the house. Everyone else is in pairs. He is too aggressive to be with tankmates or a female

Nice pics.. Looks like you're putting that new camera to good use.. Next time I'm down in your area I need some lessons.. Lol
Thanks brother! I would happily shoot with you any time. What gear do you have? I am a rookie but will help in any way I can. The OH's deserve a decent set of pics
So I shot these tonight stopped at F10, shutter speed of 200, no flash and manual focus which I seem to get better luck with focus at this aperture. He has an injury on his lip from ramming some wood but it is healing up quickly. What do you guys think?
