Experimenting with a mini soft box over my on camera flash. Not too bad with the softer light.

These are some excellent close-up shots of fish! You must have a good camera and good photography skills.
Thanks, Camera is the Nikon D750 and those were shot with the Nikon 105 2.8 Macro lense, quite happy with the first 5 shots. the last ones of the Choati wrass believe could have been much better, yet when a fish poses for you it's only a fraction of a second to take a burst of shots and no real time to work out focusing or exposure better than what you have already set, that is the tricky part in fish shots.
