Mac is the biggest fish in our tank, but he’s a gentle giant.
As we watched him swimming around we wondered if he had teeth, so I grabbed the macro lens.
Well that answers that, better keep my fingers out of the tank, lol.
Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. 
MM started on Sept 29, 2008 – Thanx to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

That’s awesome (the picture and the discovery.) I’m a little relieved that it was a fish, I thought we were in for a close up of a McDonald’s burger. Not that I haven’t eaten a big mac… I just wasn’t sure if I wanted to look at it that closely!
Tammy said,
I don’t think I’m putting my finger in Mac’s moth any time soon!
I still am in love w/ that eye! I went to our Wal mart to look for the puffer fish but no luck! Now that I know they exist I am keeping my eyes open for them!

Hi Lisa! I’m new here. Hope you don’t mind me joining in on the party. Came to your site from a couple of blogs that link in to you and was wowed that you’re in Stevens Point, WI! I have an aunt and cousins there. Grew up just an hour or so from there where I still have lots of siblings. Have been in Texas longer than I was a Wisconsinite, tho, but Central Wis will always be home to me…
God bless you in your cancer freedom (I hope)! My oldest sis battled Stage 3 colon cancer last year w/ surgery and chemo. She’s been cleared so I hope it stays that way…
Anyway, nice to meet you!
texwisgirl said,
P.S. I messed up on the linky and posted my i.d. photo instead of my post photo. Newbies… What are you gonna do with ‘em…
Mama Zen said,
Beautiful!
Evelyn said,
Hello Mac, I do love your colour!
Trish said,
oh my! what big eyes he has, his color is beautiful
Karen said,
I was expecting to see a hamburger! A great looking fish Lisa, and the pattern of his eye is pretty cool.
Teresa said,
Mac definitely has teeth. great photo. I think if I could be any color as a fish, yellow would be one of my top choices. Cheerful all the time.
David said,
His eyes are really beautiful and he looks like such a happy fish. I lost my tank to ICK this past week.
I’m posting my tiniest flower. If anyone out there knows a plant taxonomist, send him a link. Thanks.

PS: Thanks, Lisa, for getting the McLinky working. This is one of my favorite spots on the enite internet.

Mac is awfully cute, but somehow I don’t think he’s a huge danger to your little fingers. Adorable, and so yellow!

Great macros! Mac has beautiful eyes but such menacing teeth! He reminds me of Goldie, my gold gourami.
Christina, Sweden said,

Lui said,
Mac is a gorgeous one. Of course he has fangs. The better to snap at intruders!
Carletta said,
Mac looks like a very mellow yellow fellow. I bet he wouldn’t bite.
Terrific shot!
