Pair of racoon butterflyfish. I spent the better part of 30 minutes with this pair as they flitted about in the blue. I liked this shot simply because he's got his lips all puckered up and his "do" happenin' Would have been nice if she was just a little lower, but they weren't that cooperative!

A trio under a ledge. There are also cleaner shrimps under there, but they mostly hung out on the eel's tail, unfortunately. This little area was surrounded by stinging hydroids - I became very familiar with them ouch!
