Would be sweet if we had a photo dictionary in alphabetical order. Fish listed by their biological names and each name you can click on to where members can post no more than 1 picture of their fish under that name. would be neat way to show off our show males as well as reference traits of ours to others. I sometimes see markings on my fish and wonder, "is that normal?"

The same fish can look different at different times. For example, my N. livingonstonii male can had a dark/light blotchy pattern, or the same with steel blue through the face, or when he's really revved up, he's all blue without any blotchy pattern at all! 1 picture simply wouldn't work.

Lighting is a big factor in this, too.
