Diodon hystrix

 

 

This is a porcupine fish.  Note the sharp spines.  Yet another example of a night photo.  These guys sit pretty still for you when you have your light on them!

 

Chaetodon rafflesi

 

 

 

A butterfly fish.  The common name is latticed butterfly.

 

Paraselenia gratiosa

 

 

 

Close-up of a sea urchin.

 

 

 

 

The forked object in the middle of the patch of sand is actually a worm.  If you touch this it retracts rapidly into the coral to safety.

 

 

 

 

Another coral.  This was especially colorful with the bright yellow in between the ridges.

 

Caesio teres

 

 

Just a colorful school of fish passing by.
