The "zebra" fish
Clearly, I have forgotten the name of the fish. Given its black stripes on a white body, I thought best to call it the "zebra fish. My apologies to the marine world upfront.
Clearly shooting pictures of fishes in an aquarium is a tough ask. Firstly, you have to deal with a very thick layer of glass which in most cases is quite dirty owing to people's palm imprints. Second, fishes rarely stay in one place long enough to get a clean shot. Third, their direction of movement is quite unpredictable as they rarely seem to move in a straight line making it that much for difficult to preempt where they might be the next moment. Fourth, given so many moving objects at the same time, it is quite a challenge to focus on any one and the auto focus (you can safely give up on the manual focus mode) keeps hunting for focal points making it a cat and mouse game!
After a few attempts, I managed to get a clean shot.
