random pic - mandarin dragonets

Postby wade » April 8th, 2003, 8:54 am

Here's a pic I got about a month ago, I had just scraped alot of corraline off of the glass and I think it got my mandarins excited. They do their breeding dance nearly nightly (after halides are out, 10 minutes prior to actinics going out).

Photo taken with a coolpix 950 with flash exposure (due to low tank lights).

That is SWEET, Wade! I've never seen mandarins going through a mating ritual like that! (Although I saw a couple of ducks doing it on my front lawn yesterday morning!! 8O )
