I was trying to get a POTM photo and got some good shots of my GATF, but nothing of him worth entering into the contest. Still a couple good shots that I figured I'd share, however.
Nikon d5100, 50mm f1.8G lens fired at f8, ISO 640, 1/200th.
It came from the abyss...

Amazing fish!!
You are right, not particularly fantastic shots ( compared with what goes around in here ) but that GATF is out of this worl!!

Thanks, Miguel!
He's a stunning fish, but very uncooperative. When I get up on the tank with the camera he goes right to the bottom of the tank and gets really twitchy. He's damn near impossible to get a good picture of, at least for my limited photography skills. I'm learning though. I'll be a contender for that POTM some day.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone!
Cool. I have a few zoom lenses, I'll break them out and take a crack at it in a bit. None of them are the good f2.8 glass, but I've learned a lot since I used them last. I guess I can take another crack at it. Thanks man.
get a zoom lens. 50 would make it a little hard to get good shots. for nikon get the 70-200mm
