Brenda that a Golden Tailed Eel in yellow clothing. Apparently they have a yellow phase in some of them, AFAIK.

I'm dubbing it banana squash eel, just in case it's a new species. ;)

Really nice pics. Great froggie and seahorse.

Nice Cecil! Your pictures always make me smile :) Where did you find the snake eel (Art eel)?

Last batch.

This picture has a story, I saw these Blue Wrasses lining up for that juvenile Spanish Hogfish, once they got to the head of the line they would line up with the Hogfish and open their mouth, the Hogfish would look in and the next one would present himself. Now I watched this for a bit and I never once saw the hogfish pick anything out of the wrasse mouthes, so the only thing I can figure is the hogfish is the local dentist.

Awesome photos, Cecil. Did you get used to the new camera or do you wish you used your Canon? Although it is sad to see, I loved your lionfish photo. Also, your photos using the anchor hole at Hilma were very nicely composed. Your north shore photo would make an excellent enlargement for a wall photo too!
