Hi Bill, That is an excellent idea.  You are not taking anything, but just pointing people to a picture that is on the web (placed there by the owner for viewing in the first place). I've done that myself in the past.  Sorry I flew a little off the handle, but people have to realize just how bad it feels when you see your photos being used by others.  I have found my photos all over the web, it's very disheartening.  I haven't really photographed any killies, but I have photographed allot of african cichlids.  My website is here  http://members.cox.net/ron86/  for those that want to take a look at some of my pics. Ron
