Dominant male Sewellia lineolata

I know this is only one photograph, but I was so pleased with this shot (taken earlier this evening) that I wanted to share it. This is my dominant male S. lineolata shown grazing on the manifold intake sponges:

I take quite a lot of pics of him sat on the sponges, but none have ever come out as in-focus and showing so much detail of tubercles and 'fences'.

Hope you like it!

Stunning photo as usual Emma

If its some of his offspring that I might be getting off you I hope they turn out as lovely as him

I need a way to make time go faster

Thanks all! This guy is just over 2.25" TL.

That's about like my biggest male. They are very impressive looking at that size. I imagine that the spotties at 3" are even more so.

Absolutely!

I'll keep trying for a photo of the giant one against a ruler, but he's very reclusive.

Wow stunning photograph Emma. Makes me want to just buy thousands of these guys and put them in a 10,000 gallon river tank....ok maybe thats a little extreme but you get the idea

Wow, you should be. A one in a 100 shot to say the least.

Thank you.

I've added this pic to the S. lineolata picture gallery at the bottom of the profile.
