Not mine: Interesting paro pictures on website

[Stefanie Rick]

Looking through websites with paro informations and pictures, I found this website.

There are four interesting pictures of one single Parosphromenus species/ form, showing young males and females. The owner of the site labels them as “deissneri” – but is that right?

The pictures are sharp and detailed, and it would be interesting to know which form/species this really is.

It’s not even close to deissneri… It is an ordinary bintan-form.

Hi, Bartian,

that’s what I thought. I’m still a beginner in paros, but after all I’ve read and after all pictures I have seen – I was quite sure that it is like you said now.
Nevertheless – I think it is nice to have pictures of young males and females of this form, too. It’s very difficult to distinguish paros in all their liveries – depending on mood, age, sex …….. and I personally am glad about every illustration I can get ………..

Hi Stefanie, – if you like you are welcome to every now and then have a look into my newly opened flickr account. I just got a very good camera, which of course means I will be taking lots of photoes of my paros. Some, if perfect, I might of course also use here, but at flickr I will put up more. I dont have all species, but at the moment I have eight, – and its so much fun to try to make the ‘perfect’ photo.

Here it is (at the moment theres not a lot of photoes, but it will come, so look in every now and then)

Thank you, Helene – that’s what I like! This is very helpful – even if you think that some photos might not fit for glossy magazines …….. That’s not essential, for me the main issue is to have proper photos for which it’s sure that they show the fish as labelled!
There are not so many correct paro photos in the web on which’s labelling you can rely without any doubt.

I have begun to upload pictures of my fish (almost Badis) in my Google Picasa web album …….. maybe some day it’s worth showing. When I have more paros, I hope……… The week after Easter I will hopefully get a pair of P. qindecim – I am waiting eagerly ….
