Description He looked like a little mistake -
Like an unfinished draft of a creature -
Like God's little joke on marine life.
Totally unaware of the reason he was so intensly stared at -
A funny existance statement -
talk about unique...

They are known as box fish or cow fish. If you get close enough their green glowing eyes are pretty cool.

I used to have an aquarium whtn I was in college. I collected all the clear fish.
Glass cats and neons and all these.
It is the salt water ones that have the best colors though

ZenAkita In reply to ntora [2008-10-21 16:15:35 +0000 UTC]

Ya marine fish are stunning and crazy colourful. They do need a more stable environment and quality of water so they are tougher to keep

I miss my aquariums. So you collected transparent fish you can see through. So basically you had fish you couldnt see well? LOL

ntora In reply to ZenAkita [2008-10-21 16:49:45 +0000 UTC]

As a great In-Aquarium Movie once told me:

ntora In reply to Rhionne [2007-08-27 07:18:27 +0000 UTC]

thank you.
I cnat for the life of me recall what this fish is called but it was so peculiar
far form anything I ve ever seen before.
I use no flas of course. Not only it would ruin the image (reflects on glass) but it also looks so unnatural and hurtful to the fish/animals.
Fortunatelly these aquariums are so well lit that i did not even have to pus the exposure to make this.
Glad you like it

It looks to me like a cow fish. Not that I'm an expert or anything, he's just my favourite kind of fish. ^^

It's amazing how well he's come out, he can't have moved at all.

ntora In reply to Rhionne [2007-08-27 12:06:40 +0000 UTC]

really? that is what it is called?
cow-fish?
well he was moving slowly and i got a lot fo shot sof him.
He was obviously undisturbed from our presence and strolled along the tank casually.
I will look for it online now that I know what it is called
