My pride and joy--Blue Spotted Jawfish

[Donmarco]

I finally captured a fairly good photo of my prize Blue Spotted Jawfish. I just wanted to share it with everyone.

Wow, he's stunning! what does he eat?

Very nice pic. If I didn't have a top I thought he would find a spot to jump out of I would get another one. They are great fish with great personalities.

He's in my 120G Oceanic. He decided that his burrow needs to be under a colony of Hairy Mushrooms (Rhodactis indosinensis) and under a large colony of zooanthia. Sometimes I think he's going to bury the mushrooms under the sand he spits out as he's busy with housekeeping.

 

He's a beautiful fish with a great personality.

 

I do have a glass top on the tank because I have a few jumpers in the group including three Clown Fairy Wrasses and a One Spot Foxface Rabbitfish. Oh, and yes, the Jawfish does jump from time to time. There are only two fish in the tank that don't jump--a Lawnmower Blenny and a Sailfin Tang. Yet, they all provide a spectacular show!

P.S. I'm having a great time experimenting with my camera. Here's another photo I thought I'd share. I promise, it'll be the last one!

I've been wanting one of those for a while.

 

I wonder if he would pair up and share my mantis shrimp's burrow.
