Cup_of_Lifenoodles Fish Guru Posts: 2755 Kudos: 1957 Votes: 30 Registered: 09-Sep-2004 | It's actually, IIRC, a humphead wrasse. Number two is a queen angel, I think LM nailed the clown and the morray. 4 and 6 appear to be lionfish (4 is especially beautiful), and the last invert looks to me like a nudibranch. |

littlemousling Conchiform Posts: 5230 Registered: 23-Aug-2003 | Joe, Bob, Larry ... oh, you mean actual names? You probably know the first one's a False Percula (NEMO!!!one!! ), but (and these are only guesses, more for my own enjoyment than to be of any real help) I think 6 is a Volitans, three is a Green Moray (one always sees them in big public aquariums) and two looks devilishly familiar but I'll let someone who can pull the name off the top of his or her head list it so I can have a lazy Sunday morning. Otherwise, NEMO, Joe, Larry, Susan, Trigger, Sally, Rodeo, and George. -Molly Visit shelldwellers.com! |

keithgh *Ultimate Fish Guru* Posts: 6371 Kudos: 6918 Votes: 1542 Registered: 26-Apr-2003 | Nemo is now the oficial Aquatic emblem of Queensland Australia I know several of these but I would like for some one to give them the correct names please I did not take these photos on the GBR. I was in Cairns for several days before travelling further north to a Torris Straits Island for six days of fishing and pure relaxation of Island Life. Yes I did catch many fish also released many as well. Any protected fish was handelled very carefully before it was returned. My mate did a fair bit of snorkelling off the island but after seeing a 6ft shark within 10ft of the shore I changed my mind.
