The bit o' black behind the right gill plate is just what I was hoping for on Mikado. Hopefully it will expand down to form motoguro on that pec and upward to wrap toward the shoulder The rest of the sumi pretty well speaks for itself already...

*nodnodnodnod* Ayup, I saw that and am crossing my fingies that little splash of sumi does just that. I can also see subcutaneous sumi creeping forward from her dorsal towards her shoulder a bit underneath the skin. I hope, though, that she keeps nice white shoulders with maybe only a little meandering of sumi stripes if at all.

There's a lot of "we'll see" in this, huh.

They're still a little pinked up, but nowhere near as livid as yesterday. They're already outcompeting the longfins for food. Mikado is the leader of the Q-school now--the longfins and the others follow her almost everywhere. It's truly funny. As soon as I transfer them to the glass Q I'll be able to get some close ups of her sides and front to get a fuller look at her. From the topside it ain't hardly happening...
