'Triton' (pics)

[Big Vine]

Caught a few of Triton starting to face the camera a few days back, so thought I'd share.

Even though it's blurry, I love how the flash brings out the greenish stripe down the middle of Triton's forehead on this next pic (which, unfortunately, is hardly noticeable under my tank's subdued lighting---maybe it'll show up more once Triton gets a little bigger).

A couple of blurrier pics of Triton facing the camera.

wasnt he just green when you got him. i like his colors though.

Drake, I think you're confusing Triton and Meaty...

sclabman, katie...thanks...Triton is right around 2.0" right now (just under 2-inches when I first got him).
drake...thanks...and nope, he had the exact same tiger patterning/coloration when I first got him. Ditto on what Jeff said.

Aw, thanks missdixie.
I'll definitely follow your advice on getting lots of pics of Triton while he's still young. We did this with our pug, Willow, and I'm so thankful we did this because she grew up so darn fast! LMAO...Matt must be disgusted that I'm actually comparing an oscar to a dog.

Thanks for the comments.

Exactly, WAY to many oscars in these waters.

Nice pics.

[IDunnoWhy]

He really does look great, If I only had the room for one.....

 

[Big Vine]

Thanks for the compliments.

If I only had the room for one.....

Ahem...seems to me that the *coughfreecough* tank you just acquired means that you can now get that 75 gal. oscar tank that you've been dreaming of, doesn't it?

MO...just go nab up a 75 gal. tank and set it up for an oscar---see if you can get it up and running before Denny gets his, lol.
