What sort of fish is it anyway?

Subzero and Dan -i have taken 2 pics of the fish-2 i have reduced it to 800x600(no croping or photo base).The distance is 18 feet without zoom(if i go back more the pic is lost) 1st. pics taken at 22feet and zoomed about a foot(pic enlarged and brought forward by zoom a foot)-croped to 1635x1201 and passed through photobase done every thing but no tint(shsrping etc.)then resized to 800x600.(uploading now.)
