•  Support Very interesting and valuable for the project. The sharpness is not quite as good in all the pics; the second and fourth pictures are clearly sharper than the first and third. But I think they all pass the bar since they are all high resolution, and being honest aquarium photos aren't that easy. Cmao20 (talk) 11:47, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment - The one I'm not sure about is the third one. This would make a great VI set nomination, except that for technical reasons, VI set nominations are no longer accepted (and I don't know what the technical reasons are or how longstanding the problem is; I just see the notice at VIC), and they're also all QIs. It's worth keeping in mind, though, that these fish are typically up to 15.2 centimetres (6 in) long per w:Symphysodon aequifasciatus, and at full size, all of these images are considerably larger than that. I think I will probably eventually support this set, but I have to think further about that one photo, as the rule is that all photos in an FPC set have to be considered FPs on their own in order to support the set. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:42, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
•  Support It's a fairly small fish (15-23cm). Even though the first photo is not as sharp as the others, I like the idea, resolution and other fish too much not to support it. --Podzemnik (talk) 08:01, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

•  Question Is this actually a set? I imagine that you've approached it based on "A group of images which show all possible variations of a particular class of object.", but is this set showing all possible variations of the subject? Poco a poco (talk) 18:44, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

• Agree this nomination doesn't seem valid for a set, like the Nazca lines candidature last July, because of the guidelines : "Not acceptable: A few breeds of cats". Similarly here we have "Some colour variants of a fish". I also miss the captions for each of them -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:16, 8 February 2020 (UTC)

• As this nom is quite far and I hardly believe that the set is "complete" I'll opt for  Oppose for now, Poco a poco (talk) 12:09, 8 February 2020 (UTC)

•  Not as a set per above. Although I may support the blue one nominated individually -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:15, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
•  Question Question for Llez, Poco a poco and Basile Morin: Does this fish come in other colors than these? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:18, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

  Ikan Kekek: I'm not an expert and actually I still expect feedback from Llez on that, but it looks like the range of color of this fish is pretty wide Poco a poco (talk) 17:37, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment - If those are all in fact true-color photos of this species, this nomination should be voted down as identical in scope to "some breeds of cats". -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:47, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

• See also these Canidae -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:09, 10 February 2020 (UTC)

• To show all colour variants, you had to nominate hundreds of photos in a set, see here. I didn't know the rule "some breeds..." is not allowed. I will nominate colour variantions separately in future and I hope, that they not will be opposed by the argument "There exists already a FP of this species". I think, it is the best to withdraw the set. So  I withdraw my nomination. --Llez (talk) 08:30, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
