• Oppose It is a great image and justly deserves the Commons FP. However, its EV is low. There is no environment and the dark conditions are a problem: very little of the body is bright enough to see the scales and most importantly it is impossible to tell this has clear fins (hence the name "Clearfin lionfish") rather than just opaque dark fins. See the other pictures in the category at Commons. -- Colin°^Talk 12:58, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
