Mostly tropical fish
Taking pictures of tropical fish is a challenge. I read that some photographers tranquilize them and place them between two sheets of glass. That sounds cruel to me. With a little patience, one can capture their image without hurting them. I balanced a flash on top of the aquarium and used +filters. Of course that means that there is practically no depth of field, so you have to wait until the fish is in just the right place.
Red and blue betta The double image is due to the reflection from the back
glass.

Plecostomus
and friend. The quality of the picture is not good, but this fish deserves
recognition. She was very old in this picture. This plecostomus
lived over 10 years and survived jumping out and injuring her dorsal and tail
fins and later swim bladder problems. I found her floating upside down
with her belly puffed out and thought she was dead, but she just had a swim
bladder problem. She is the first fish I ever had survive that
condition. She lived another year after that and her earlier injuries from
the big jump fully healed but took a year a or two to do so. I have no
idea if it was really male or female, but I chose to call it a she.
