In March I found this little guy and I'm having trouble IDing him. Any one out there have any ideas? Info... 1.5 to 2 inches long, Found in about a foot of water at the jet fuel pier across from the airport.

It's either a secretary blenny or a pearl blenny. You will have to take me to the spot where you saw it so I can make a better identification. I'm always available>

My money is on Pearl Blenny. They are almost always found in the top 6" to 1 foot of water, as I understand.

I have a fish I can't identify - but I didn't find him on Bonaire (although I have been to Bonaire twice). I saw him in a small bay on St. Lucia. He is about 5" long, and I first saw him chasing an octopus. Found in shallow, inshore, mixed sea grass and rocks. Also seen mating - the mate was a different color. I'm wondering if this is breeding coloration.

Thanks, Susan. Someone else also gave me that ID. He is in "the book" but you would never know it from their photos!
