Schooling Among the Shadows

A school of striped fish weaves between the dark structures of an aquarium habitat at the Texas State Aquarium in Corpus Christi, Texas. Their yellow fins and horizontal markings stand out against the bright blue water as individuals cross through different layers of the scene, creating a natural sense of depth, movement, and life beneath the surface.
