Shamu getting fat

[Modest_Man]

Good side profile shot but it was before I had the exposure dialed in so it's a bit over exposed on the top of his body. Great profile on this guy. Love the fin extensions.

Here's more his true color, I was going for him moving the rocks. He tends to get excited when I turn off the lights and digs a bunch, kicking up the particles you can see in the photos.

He's finally chasing people in front of the glass, and he managed to bite me while feeding him last week. Surprised me more than anything. He's on a strict 5x a day feeding, trying to make up for lost time with the 6 months he didn't eat.

Beautiful color!

His fins are developing nicely. I take it he is still eating well now?

It's good to see you stuck it out with him. He is developing into an outsdanding specimen, great color and beautiful finnage. Great photos too BTW.

WOW. Very beautiful fish, I especially like the fin extensions and the colors found at the tip of his tail. Very sharp looking fish and excellent job on the pics.

He looks good! What size would you say he is?

Thanks all. Glad I stuck with him too. He goes crazy for food now, any time of day. Here's a quick video.

I'd say he's 8" or so. Not really sure.
