This Moray Eel is not actually as mean as you think. It's eyesight may not be all that good but it's sense of smell is quite amazing. This particular eel was approximately 5 feet in length.

This fish pictured above is called a Pork Fish. There seems to be an abundance of these fish in Florida's coastal waters.

This is a Surgeon Fish (Tang). These beautiful fish and many more of their species are caught everyday throughout the world. They are commonly sold at pet shops to be placed in home aquariums as the same with most "Tropical Fish". Although we like to see Marine Life up close and in our homes; we're not to complacent with the methods used in catching them. Often times in other countries, marine fish are caught by using chemicals such as cyanide. These chemicals may stun the fish briefly but wind up killing the whole surrounding reef.

This fish is called a Rock Beauty and it is as beautiful as it's name implies. It is pictured here next to what is called "Basket Sponges". The sponges in this picture are approximately 3 feet in diameter.

These are "Butterfly Fish". These fish are not that easy to maintain in an aquarium as most other fish; so please keep this in mind if you are looking for fish to buy.
