Here is one of the many african cichlids I have in my 90 gallon bowfron tank. Hard to tell whether it is a male or a female. Help, anyone! I would like to crossbreed it with my green terror. The result (fry) would be marvelous.

I will send a better quality picture either later today or some time this week. I am in the middle of cleaning the tank so perhaps I should not have taken that shot of him/her while I was doing cleaning. I appreciate all your comments and I would love to hear any advice and suggestions as far as taking better quality pics. I enjoy being a hobbyist but I am new to uploading pics for this site. Please bare with me. I will get it right.

the best time to take pictures is at night.turn off all the lights on the fish tank and in your house.then wait a lil while cuz they will think its time to go to sleep and then take pictures at that time with your flash one.

Thanks for the advice, Sarah. I will try that soon. What size tank do you have and what species?
