Had I been a member, I would have voted 10. These fish are cool! Too bad so many people were ignorant of them. They're quite entertaining.
Read about the fish!

You're gonna get hammered for making him hold his breath like that, but the colors, composition and DOF are top notch. Photographically, it's a 10 from me, but next time please include a snorkel... er... straw.

This is a (technically) great photo but I feel kind of bad for your model! Hopefully he was okay.

Yikes, Bubble-eyed goldfish creep me out :P Great sharpness, clarity and focus. You can even see little veins around the eyes.... nicely done.

Dead or alive? He appears to be out of water to me. I'm torn on how to vote here. The image is compelling and technically wonderful.

I never saw this before. This is a real interesting fish.I guess, it was difficult to show the fish out of water, But this glass distracts to me, sorry.

Cool fish! Love the idea of him/her blowing itself up in the glass.

Oh wow... Looks like he is getting ready to explode. Better get him back in the bowl.
