DetailOriginal

A gray angelfish.

A damselfish. In real life, it is dark blue with irridescent spots and a yellow tail.

Perhaps a grunt? Not sure. As I recall, in real life it had the turquoise and gold coloring of a grunt. Whatever it is, it liked hanging out under this overhang of rock or coral. So did the itty-bitty little fry over on the right (see original picture).

A French angelfish.

A parrotfish. This picture is pretty terrible, but in the fish's tail you can just barely see the rainbow of green and orange and blue that makes the fish so spectacular in live appearances.

A sargeant major. Probably my best fish picture from this camera.

A school of mostly dark blue tang.

A trunkfish. You can sort of tell from this high-angle picture that the trunkfish is not as flat as the others--from head on, the body looks triangular.

An unidentified fish. Dad thinks it may be a yellowtail snapper.
