Exclamation sea horse?

By the way, I just got back from Maui, where I saw some live Achilles Tangs for the first time (lots of them, in fact). I had been concerned about getting the color right, but it seems like I guessed fairly well. The main body color varies with lighting angle and intensity, and I attempted to capture this. The "mood" of the fish itself might even have something to do with it - volume of blood flow, maybe. While snorkeling, I found several good candidates for new fish (once I start making fish again). Seeing them in motion helps tremendously.  

The Marine Aquarium can really use a sea horse. A lot better than shrimp or whatever. Are you considering that? There must be live ones in captivity to study.
