EJ the fish

I took a couple of pictures of EJ, subject of yesterday's post, this morning. This first one shows the red in his fins nicely. He's a dark blue, so the red fins give a really rich appearance, very royal I think.



He's so funny--he'll swim around and kind of hover on my side of the tank unless someone comes through the door, then he reorients himself so he can watch whoever came in. It just really amuses and astonishes me that he's so interested in what's going on around him.


His fins are spread a little more here, with that graceful sweep, and you can see the blue at the root of his tail fin and the edge of his belly fin. And yes, those are pictures of the Ts reflected there--sheer accident that it centered on EJ so perfectly!

He's doing so well at bumping my finger that I'm wondering if there'd be some way to rig it so he could ring a little bell... ;-D
