Durzo - A. aculeatus

This is all I got... He's been shy lately.

I say he's been shy, and guess what happens? He comes out of course. He was hanging out on the overflow and I walk real slowly into the room, and as soon as I point a camera at him he inks everywhere... Fairly messy. :roll: Anyway I managed to get a few pictures after that, and tonight was the first time I saw his 'skunk stripe'.

I caught him staring at me from behind a rock:

He ducked back right before I took the picture, it would have been 1000x better if my camera didn't take so long between pictures...

I really like the stills with the reflections. I don't recall in tank videos that show the walking algae look as well as the first two videos in this group. Good catch.
 
He was out early and I decided to grab the camera and he started doing it, I was in a rush to try to get it (the blue one) so it didn't turn out very good. I was relieved when he kept doing it though. :lol:
 
Sometimes I don't bother with the camera so that I can stay and watch whatever they may be doing interesting. When they keep doing whatever it is, I usually break down and set it up (camera is not often far away). Some of my best videos have been a result of the continued action after observation ... then there those that I miss entirely :roll:

He's been fairly shy lately, not many sightings with the light on, so the best I can offer is some blurry flashy pictures. :concern:

Not the greatest pics ever, but I needed to post something.
