Getting these guys on camera while they are free swimming, it was an eye opening experience.

A way to draw the tigrinus out of its hiding and swim around in the open.

Thank you, I am sorry I have only one tigrinus, my sentence forming was pretty bad, what I meant was the species in general, not two specimens in my tank.

Everybody knows this is a lost cause. Stop pulling our legs.

Nice to see some other striped cats in India.

The first pic proves I know how to do it, I simply switch off the tank lights, and switch the camera to manual focus, and meter the camera to the flash lights.

With the lights on, the Tig is always inside the cave.

Many tigs have come to India but very few survive the first year
