Reading MattK's other thread combined with doing a water change, got me thinking that I should try to get a few photos of my yellowfins... so here goes... this is not easy with a tank full of eager shiners...

Here is an overview of my 75... all these fish were about 2.5 inches a year ago... the larger blurs are all bluehead chubs and the smaller fish are all yellowfins.

Here are a few individual shots...

and a few in larger groups... you can see some colored up males and some fatter females.

anyway, that is what my yellowfins (these came from the extreme northwest part of the Oconee drainage near Buford, Georgia) look like on an average day when they think they might get fed or there is a water change...

I'm on my home computer. Vista and Chrome.
On your post i just see 6 small rectangles with a generic paper icon in the middle.
When i hover the mouse over one of the 6 rectangles a whirly clock motion occurs and then the photo pops up full size but then disappears when i move away.
At the studio computer, XP IExplorer, no whirling and when i click the screen goes grey and locks until i back out.

Casper. Much as I loved XP (hated Vista), I reluctantly migrated to Windows 8. C'mon, those OS's are antiquated. By 2 and 3 generations.

Took my GoPro and dunked it in a different tank of Yellowfins that came from Stone Mountain. These guys go crazy about minute 3 when si put some freeze dried brine shrimp in the out flow of the powerhead.
