I am needing to decide which one might look best as a framed print. Please give me your valuable feedback on which one you prefer, or what problems/improvements you might have with these. Thanks

The fish are too close to the edge in #2. I'd be tempted try again on #1 also as I feel the plant behind the fish takes away from it and is a bit distracting. Try to isolate the fish more in a cleaner background. ( But DO include some of these great water plants in the picture, the colors are great! ).

Thank You! I will definitely try this again and post some updated versions.

Also.. the lighting and detail on the single fish in pic #1 is far better than in #2.

Nice shots!

Yea, I don't know how many times I've told those little buggers to hold still and smile.... :D Thanks, and more crits welcome! I definitely want many opinions on what I'm missing or need to watch for.

buhahah... #1 IS finding Nemo... how funny. In 2 they're too close to the bottom of the frame.

Yup, #1 it is, though I will likely try to get a better composition, but similar to #1. Thanks everyone for the help! And in case anyone noticed the light specs on the blue fish's (blue hippo tang) nose in #1, it is not due to sharpening, those are actually freckles on the fish. They are very reflective when the light hits just right!
