Great looking fish. I really like the shot of that shiner yawning.

Great shots!
I also liked the yawning shiner. Really cool lighting effects. I love the highlites along the fins and on the side of the fish.
The perspective on the cingulatus makes it look like a cartoon character. :smile2:

Thank you. Lighting is nothing special just a 2 bulb shoplight over my 75 gal.

But you've got it right. That is one species I just CAN NOT get a good picture of! Great pics!

YouTube video of Pteronotropis

More video of Pteronotropis

You may also see some Pretty shiners and Cherryfin Shiners. Maybe a few tetras and loaches.

I thought Pteronotropis signipinnis were flagfin shiners

and Notropis hypselopterus were sailfin shiners

so is the video of hypselopterus or signipinnis ???

I've had a few PMs about whether the fish are hypselopterus or signipinnis.

What do you all think?
