Still haven't reached their peak in coloration! They are so close to going over the top and fully coloring up, yet so far. Tis frustrating because they keep giving me glimpses of their eventually glorious coloration, yet they aren't being stable. Patience I guess!

I need to take some pictures without flash so I don't wash them out. They are just stunning, wish I could show that.

Enjoy!
 
These are definitely my favorite pikes!!! You are so lucky to have them!!! They look amazing even if they haven't fully colored up yet.
 
I'm hoping that by September they have reached their full color potential. In all reality it might not be till next year. I'm starting to power feed them though...so that might help some!! :D
 
Looking good Jer. I think it will still be awhile before there full potential is seen.
I never use a flash when I take them. Never knew to use tissue over the flash though, will have to try it.
 
pretty nice.... im considering pikes again PP.... those blue ones you posted before are kinda the selling point but these are real nice.... what do they look like fully colored up...
 
I only have a 40watt single strip bulb on the tank. My camera sucks...lol. I HAVE to use flash if I want to get good pictures...:(.

You could come and take pictures of my fish for me!! :D The snook is calling.....

Hey I was just thinking I might have some 4 ft shop lights with double bulbs out at my parents.
