Location Sweden, Kalmar, one of Rolf Lind's aquariums.
Light Internal flash + aquarium light.
Post editing Adjusted colors, minor retouching, resampled, sharpened.
Problems This fish moves very fast, I had to prefocus. This species is also hard to use autofocus on with my camera, as the sensor is not good at detecting contrast in blue, red or black objects.

When I took this picture I did not yet know what exposure setting would be best to use when taking pictures with internal flash, so I used a 1/60s exposure. The result is that the aquarium light has made the whitish pebbles look pink where the flash did not illuminate enough, especially visible in the shadow area under the fish, because of the differencies in white balance between the aquarium light and the flash. I will take more pictures of this species to try to get better shots.
