Love these doubleheader wrasse, Coris bulbifrons. Beautiful deep smoky blue with a big bulge on their forehead, they will quite often just casually cruise on past. Like many wrasse, they change sex, colour and appearance quite radically as they age and grow.

How special to see this. Normally shy and a little timid, these little leatherjackets were quite happy concentrating on each other as I watched them courting.

This little eastern footballer or mado has suddenly started hanging with a family of stripeys that I've been watching. But it always keeps slightly apart, aloof, even. In fact, sometimes it almost seems like it is herding them - and giving lectures! This guy definitely has attitude!

The marbled parrotfish (Leptoscarus vaigiensis) likes to camouflage itself, disappearing into the seagrass and algae on which it feeds.
