Feeding Blue Tang

They move like they are one, swoop and swirl and writhe like a sea-serpent. This was off Leonara's Reef, a dive site on the northern side of the main island of Bonaire. Better done by boat than as a shore dive - pesky things like sheer cliffs get in the way. I recall these were filmed towards the end of our dive, around 35 ft. It's always amusing to see other fish species flocking to the Tang - as they coral-hop their way around the reef.

Bonaire Blue Wrasse

Off the eastern coast of Klein Bonaire, not much more than a little pile of rock, coral and sand, lies Mi Dushi. Part of the fringing reef around Klein, it never fails to surprise and delight. This day we were rewarded by what is one of my favorite sights. Schools of blue wrasse traveling with the current - feeding along the way.
