I took a few pictures of some of my sunfish tonight actually in their tanks rather than in the photo tank. It's a lot harder to get them to cooperate this way...

Then don't stop much, I sat in front of the tanks for over an hour to get those pics. I also have to be careful about lighting, put an extra strip light off another tank temporarily and set the cameral to a very fast shutter speed since they do move around a lot, otherwise you get very blurry pics.

I really like all of them but the 5th one is my favorite.
