Thought I would share a few pics of these guys. They are about 7" and one of my favorite fish other than the cichlids. :ssmile:

Great photos of great fish. I love bala's but I wish they would stay smaller.
Balas get massive, I'd love to have them in my 220 but they wouldn't get along with current stocking.

Great shots of a very difficult subject, one of the most difficult fish
to try and photograph I reckon, nice job!

Yes they are difficult it is like trying to take a picture of a mirror. I can't tell you the ammount of shots of these fish I had to bin just to get a few because of the bounce back off the flash.:ssmile:
Great photos of beautiful fish!thumbs2:

Super shots of those sharks - I understand about how difficult they must be with the flash bouncing back with such a large area to photograph as well as the speed they have. Why did you ask them to hold still especially for you:ssmile:

Thanks Jellygirl.
These fish are so hard to get decent shots of because thre scales are so reflective. :ssmile:
