My Catfish design company

I own a design company in New Zealand called Corydoras Design and I thought you fellow catfish lovers might enjoy seeing my logo:

The very lovely cory featured is one of my shoal from home (although they are going to be moving to my office tank). I photographed the corys in a photography tank that my photographer friend and I set up in his studio. We used bright lights and flash but the fishes didn't seem too bothered and didn't show any signs of stress once back in their home tank - I took this photo 3 months ago and the little fellows are all thriving.

I would have loved to have called it Loricariidae Design or Plecostomus Design (as the suckermouths are my number 1 fish) but I thought that was just going a bit too far - people have enough trouble with Corydoras!

I haven't got my website fully functioning yet but it will be soon with lot's more cory photos. I'm also making some little 'beanbag' corys to give away as promotional gifts so I may make a few extra without my web address on them for any interested members of Planet Catfish. They will be about 15cm long, filled with sand, with embroidered eyes and made from a high quality black and grey spotty cotton.

Looks pretty cool, will you be printing that on business cards? What sort of design do you do?

Mostly commercial(restaurants), especially kitchens and bars. Some designers hate them, but I love them. It's too much fun for a human being to have. It's like playing with crayons all day(except on the computer). 8)
