Agreed. That's exactly why I said "a few extra seconds" and not minutes.

At first I thought it was a lure..
then after a few seconds of looking, I was like: "DANG, thats some incredible detailing.. even some melanophores!"
Gotta love macro shots like this. Beautiful.
Thanx Jeff for the props. I have been into fishing and aquariums for a lond time. I have always had cichlids in my aquariums so it looked familiar. I really do pay attention to alot of the details in the fish I catch. It's cool that you bring up stuff like this on here instead of "LOOK AT THIS BIG O FISH CAUGHT".
For many years I did fish taxidermy, mostly reproductions, and I learned to take the time to really look closely at the colors on live fish so I could color the mounts correctly with an airbrush and hand painting. I mean I really carefully examined the fish to figure out what colors were involved, how they overlapped, what pigments blended together to make separate colors, scale colors, etc., etc.. Plus, I respect fish as living creatures so I want to learn all I can about them. (I know it sounds corny, but it's my true feelings about all living things.)
And yes...CICHLIDS RULE brother!
