This turtle was munching on some coral in Guam and did not care that we were there!

Sixbar Wrasse ๐ŸŒˆ๐ŸŸ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡บ

A frequent favorite, I probably have more photos of this fish than any other. They are not shy and one of the first to greet me on Guam. Doesn't hurt that they're also brilliantly colored. This one with the morning rainbow is a bonus!

Pinktail Triggerfish (Melichthys vidua) โ€“ This striking triggerfish is easily recognized by its deep greenish-black body, contrasting with its vibrant pink tail. Found in lagoons and outer reef slopes across the Indo-Pacific, it is a strong swimmer, often navigating currents with ease. Unlike some triggerfish species, it is relatively peaceful but still highly territorial. Pinktail Triggerfish feed on a varied diet of algae, small invertebrates, and plankton. Their powerful jaws and tough teeth allow them to crush hard-shelled prey like crabs and sea urchins. Their bold colors and active behavior make them a fascinating species to observe on the reef.

Species #004! A first species to be photographed at each location I've dove so far!

Fourspot Butterflyfish (Chaetodon quadrimaculatus) โ€“ This distinctive butterflyfish gets its name from the four small white spotsโ€”two on each sideโ€”near the base of its dorsal fin. Found on coral reefs in the Indo-Pacific, particularly around Micronesia and the central Pacific, it primarily feeds on coral polyps, making it a specialist feeder. Unlike some butterflyfish that roam in pairs, the Fourspot Butterflyfish is often seen alone or in small groups. Its reliance on live coral means it's sensitive to reef health and habitat changes, making it an indicator species for reef ecosystems.

Species #002! I hope youโ€™ll follow along!
