The Clownfish and the sea anemone have a symbiotic relationship      Sphyraena barracuda is a long, slender, predaceaous marine fish with small scales, a large mouth with fanglike teeth, and a protruding lower jaw      This is the famous Smokey the Barracuda, seen on the cover of skin diver magazine many times      The gray snapper belongs to the snapper family Lutjanus, which includes the famous Red Snapper, Dog Snapper, and Schoolmaster      The Dusky Batfish, Platax pinnatus, is a member of the family Ephippidae, which includes Spadefishes, Batfishes and Scats

Parrotfish feed on plants and Coral during the day; with the extra set of teeth in their mouths, they even ingest the coral skeleton as well as the polyps inside      The Clownfish and the sea anemone have a symbiotic relationship      Groupers are large, heavybodied, sedentary fishes, sometimes called rockfish      This is a Nassau Grouper, photographed in the Bay Islands of Roatan      The Rock Beauty (Holacanthus tricolor) lives in shallow water over coral and rocky reefs, somtimes offshore, in Bermuda; from Georgia to Brazil, including the West Indies; offshore reefs in the Northwestern Gulf of Mexico

This is a Nassau Grouper, photographed in Grand Cayman at Bob Soto's Resort      The clownfish attracts predators to the anemone in which it lives. The predator fish in turn become the prey of the anemone      Clownfish belong to a group of small, brightly colored fish called damselfish. These inshore reef dwellers have developed a curious and potentially deadly relationship with the sea anemone      The most common anemone to act as host to the clownfish is the large stoichactis species      The porcupine fish, or Diodon hystrix is a member of the Diodontidae family of Puffers

This is the Balloonfish, a close relative of the Porcupine fish, distinguishable by the dark stripe running over the eyes      There are 235 species within the damselfish family. This includes 26 species of the clownfish or anemone fish which lives near anemones for protection      Surgeonfishes, Family: Acanthuridae, are so-called because of a hinged scalpel-like spine, actually a highly modified scale, on both sides of the tail. They are also known as doctorfishes or tangs      Of the seventy five species of surgeonfish, four are found in North America, among them the Blue Tang and Yellow-Tailed Surgeonfish      The Blue and Gold snapper, Lutjanus viridis, is known by many names, including the Fourline Snapper and the Blue and Yellow Snapper

This stoplight parrotfish was photographed in the Grand Cayman Islands      Pterois volitans or Lionfish, is a type of scorpionfish, so called for its poisonous spines      The Double-Saddle Pacific Butterflyfish, or Chaetodon ulietensis, inhabit coral-rich areas of lagoon reefs and seaweed reefs, usually solitary or in very small groups, and are, like most butterflyfish, carnivores. Often they eat the polyps of the coral, but rarely the actual skeleton      school of blue and yellow snapper in the rocky reefs of Palau      Hamlets belong to the family of Basses and are found in the tropical Atlantic ocean. They include the yellowtail hamlet, the shy hamlet, the golden hamlet and a few others

This pair of Foureye Butterflyfish were staying close together for protection at night. They also stay close together during courtship, mating dances, and selecting spots for egg-laying      Besides the Nassau Grouper, species commonly fished in the West Indies and the United States, include the red grouper, the rock hind, and the warsaw grouper. The well-known jewfish, or spotted grouper, found from Florida to Brazil, is among the largest, reaching about 700 lbs      Through years of evolution, the clownfish has become immune to the poison of the anemone, by covering itself in a protective mucous      The False Moorish Idol feeds mainly on plankton; with adults swimming in large schools, and younger fish congregating around outer slopes of coral reefs      Clownfish species are found in the Red Sea, the Coral Sea, the Indian Ocean, and the tropical Pacific Ocean. A. Percula is particularly common on Australia's Great Barrier Reef
