White Banks Reef Life #1

Below: The white and yellow fish with black stripes is the SARGEANT MAJOR. This fish is very common, and we usually see them in schools. We see them in Boca's ocean too. Hard coral to the left, soft coral on top, and sea fans on the bottom right.


BELOW: The bright yellow fish with white on bottom are BLUEHEAD JUVENILES. This means they are in the juvenile stage, and will turn blue when fully grown. The red stuff behind them is BRANCHING ANEMONES.

BELOW: more BLUEHEAD JUVENILES, and on the left is STAR CORAL. In the middle is a GREEN FINGER SPONGE, below it are BROWN VARIABLE SPONGE and RED BORING SPONGE.

Note: Shayna did the research with me to ID all the fish and coral etc., we used the Snorkeling Guide to Marine Life, which we just bought at the Divers Outlet, as our other 2 little black reef books by Paul Humann are lost somewhere in the house (thanks to you know who, and no NOT Voldemort).
