• Comment – unbalanced crop, not tack sharp, somewhat noisy and a bit small, even though it fulfills minimum size requirements. --Janke | Talk 12:59, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
• Oppose - borderline acceptable if this were an in-the-wild photo, but this was taken in an aquarium (i.e. easily replicable). MER-C 15:16, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
