I've heard that around this time of the year, large aggregates of Smooth Trunkfish (Lactophrys triqueter) can be seen around the Red Slave dive site. Has anyone witnessed this yet this year?

I'll be there next week ,and this is something I'd really like to see, so please let me know locations if you have seen this!

Thanks!

the largest gatherings I have seen are at No Name beach were they get fed by visitors to Klein Bonaire

I saw quite a number of them a few years ago off Klein, apparently slurping up some tiny jellies that were in the shallows (there seemed to be more jellies that time than I've seen since). I think it was late April/May. I wish I'd had a camera with me...

Also on our last trip, I saw quite a number at Something Special - something like 10 or more, though I only managed to get 4 or so in a frame at one time, and the photos weren't "keepers". Sigh. I think that was in the early May timeframe as well...

I am going to move this thread to a more appropriate section

has anyone ever witnessed a spawning of the smooth trunkfish? i would love to hear about it.
