I was snapping some pictures the other night because I realized I didn't have any pictures of Bluefin Killifish in my pictures collection. I got them to sit still for a little bit. The pictures made me realize I need a better camera too.

Nice pics Nate. I've never been able to get good pictures of mine. Maybe I need a new cam too.

Upper left side is a Silverjaw Minnow. Upper right side is a Swamp Darter. Yeah, the things I could do with a better camera though. The university has some that my professor loans out to his students from time to time. Perhaps I could do some good work with those.

I missed the Swamp Darter. The Silverjaw Minnow is what i was looking at. I have a few of those(I think, I need to get a pic) I collected recently.

Great pictures! You convinced me to get some today. My LFS actually had some. They are acclimating right now.

Awesome, the LFS' around Toledo always seem to have them. Try putting a small group of them in an outdoor pond for the summer with some floating vegetation in there. Harvest them in the fall and they'll be one of the most colorful fish you'll ever see.

Great pictures Nate!

Thanks, I was actually trying to get a hold of you the other day, I was driving back from the taxidermist (for that jack I got out of the Maumee) and had some time to kill.
