Wonderful photo! Please can you either change the category to "other" (as the title currently focuses on the coral) or the title to the species of fish that we can see in the photo. Thanks!

What a colorful pic!

It's such a pity that the fish would never know how beautiful they appear to us - - would they care ?!

Hi Emma, yes that's true. As you go deeper and deeper, the fish colors are faded.

After you reach a certain depth of water, the fish are not this colorful, is that so?
