Hi I think this will not yield the results I want because
1. the tail size/body size are variable between fish
2. the edge detection does not always select the whole tailfin becuase it is kinda see through and therefore this will result in cutting of too much

Hope I make sense, thanks for your feedback!

But your suggestion made me think of something else, I could select the fish remove slices starting from the right untill the amount of selected pixels that is removed increase or so (that is when the body thinkens again), does this make sense?
