Anemone and Crab

One of my favorite shots - I think that's a red crab and an Anemone.

Species: Metridium farcimen (Giant Plumose Anemones)

Kelp Crab

This little guy is hiding.  We passed by some kelp but there were more
docks than kelp.

Dungeness Crab

This is the most commonly eaten crab.

Species: Cancer magister (dungeness crab)

One Arm Red Crab

I wonder how much chance this little guy has.  From the black tips, I guess
this is a Red Crab.

Species: Cancer productus (red rock crab)

Red Crab

From the shell and the little claws I think this is Red Crab.

Yellow Eyed Fish
This is a pretty distinct looking fish but I had to no luck looking it up.

My current thinking is this is a bluethroat Wrasse.

Dark Fish On Brain Coral
Dark Fish On a Plate Coral. I suspect this is from the Fungia genus, but I'm really guessing.

Female Bird Wrasse

This was at Kahalu'u Beach - the fish seem very tame.  This is a smaller fish and
didn't school.

Species: Gomphosus varius (birdfish, bird wrasse)

Schooling Fish
Three different species all hanging out together - how nice. It's seems to me that the larger black fish defeats the camouflage of the smaller lined fish (silhouetting them), but I guess that's a little difficult for the fish to figure out.

The fish with the vertical bars are called Convict Tang's (Acanthurus triostegus). The larger black fish are probably Ring Tail Surgeonfish (Acanthurus blochii) but the photo is quite low quality.

Species: Acanthurus triostegus (convict surgeonfish, convict tang)

Scene With Fish

The bright fish in the foreground is cool, but as you look into the scene you see another, and then another fish.
It must not be that hard to camoflage in this environment, so the decision to use something like
bright white and yellow, must have some biological advantage.

Species: Chaetodon auriga (threadfin butterflyfish)

Yellow Fish
bluestriped butterflyfish - Chaetodon fremblii - just another fish swimming by.
Species: Chaetodon fremblii (bluestriped butterflyfish)

Fish Tank Fish
Just like you would see in Nemo!
Species: Zanclus cornutus (Moorish idol)

Keeltail needlefish
I suspect this is a Keeltail needlefish - Platybelone argalus but this is such a lousy picture.

Schooling Fish

Coming, going, you tell me - these fish (like me) were being dragged in the current and (unlike me) stopping
on each ebb to chew one whatever was on the rocks.

Cornet Fish

These fish just hang out on the bottom in the flow.  From a distance, they look like some sort of grass just dragging in the current, but they are live.

Species: Fistularia commersonii (reef cornetfish)

Yellow Fish Swimming By
I believe this is a Lemon damsel - Pomacentrus moluccensis.
Species: Pomacentrus moluccensis (Lemon Damsel)
