  • Oppose It's pretty, but it seems like there's either some motion blur or way too narrow depth of field: most of the image seems out of focus. Also, the image description page mentions that it is "false colour", which I think detracts from the EV. -RunningOnBrains(talk) 17:25, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose blurry. That's unfortunate because I like this otherwise. False color doesn't bother me if it's used with good reason. Pine✉ 06:42, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak support Procedural oppose. I think this is as good as we can expect given the typical ambient aquarium lighting. Wild specimens will have other problems, e.g. the difficulty of assigning a definite species id. --Avenue (talk) 21:23, 10 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Changing to oppose based on the process, per Dante Alighieri. I'd probably feel differently if there was evidence of a good faith attempt to incorporate both pictures in the article, not driven solely by the desire to make this picture eligible for FPC. --Avenue (talk) 02:08, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Procedural Oppose. You're the one who added it to the article, and you replaced an existing Featured Picture to do so, with no edit comment. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 01:39, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oops, sorry, I didn't notice there was an existing FP as a lead image. Really sorry. I withdraw for now. Avenue, I'm quite hurt by your things - "I'd feel differently if there was... a good faith", "not driven solely by the desire to make this picture eligible". Is that really how you think I work? What about some good faith? Tomer T (talk) 08:37, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • I'm sorry. I'm sure you didn't notice the image you replaced was an existing FP. I saw your actions as representative of a pattern that I feel happens too often here, of thoughtless replacement of images so that a new image can go through FPC. I tend to assume much less good faith when there's no edit summary, but should have thought better of you. --Avenue (talk) 15:13, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
