    I sent an email:
    Hi, the fish you have listed under scorpions as a Orange Banded Stingfish is actually a lionfish, a Mombasae to be exact, MY mombasae to be even more exact. Please remove my photo.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    LOL

    I am sure this is not the first time or the last someone is going to use your images. First because they are usually excellent and second because some people are just stupid and lazy.

    Beautiful fish BTW.

    Good find! I would suggest that you watermark your pictures from now on considering the quality of your pics. Funny how they list the health of the fish and acclimation etc at the bottom.

    I didn't want to say the name of the site afraid they could come back and get me with something...LOL!

    I get emails with people asking to use my photos in stuff. I don't think I've turned anyone down.

    I don't think you guys would buy from them anyways. One fish pictured is almost dead! LOL! I was like "Is that fish clamped!!!!"
