mike how did you get the pic so big?

I use IRFanView to resize my images quickly. When I save, I can decrease quality to about 75% and drastically decrease the size of the image. That image is ~50k. The original image at that size at 100% quality was too large to upload.

Beautiful pics both of you. I am trying to decide on my favorite so I can enter it.
Mike, what kind of fish is that? My husband brought one home about 6 months ago but forgot the name. He has been a perfect tank inhabitant but I just never knew what kind he is.

Amblyeleotris guttata aka orange spotted shrimp goby, aka orange spot goby aka guatta goby aka aka aka....
Very docile for a banded goby. Pairs quite easily with pistol shrimp (Alpheus spp.) Make sure it has a place to make a burrow/cave.
