It is highly cool, please take many pictures. :-)

Is this the one you were thinking about Jools?

Back from holiday, and with my flashes acting up on me, I didn't have much of an opportunity to photograph cats before my Next cruise up north to Svalbard. But I managed to pull off some sneaky shots of two species before my flashes finally died.

So here is a vibrant species, the Titanicus Pleco ().

P.S.: not to worry, I have just received my brand new flash-system :D

Hello Halvard,
Beautiful pictures you take.
Are you using a flash or just a light?
Thank you for sharing

Thank you for the kind words Ortiz :)

I use two external flashes, one at each side of the aquarium. In the last two species I posted my flashes started to act up, so they're not lit the way I originally wanted.
Next time I'm due for a photoshoot I'll snap a phone picture of the set-up and post it along with the species to give a visual explanation of how the photos are taken :D

Continuing the Loricariidae extravaganza with a species I've photographed before, but this individual was so different from the juvenile I photographed, so here is the Flash Pleco () for the second time
