  1. A few fish I could not ID and a cuttlefish from a trip to Anilao and Puerta Gallera

     

    Thanks again for any help anyone can give me.

  2. #1 is linecheecked wrasse (Oxycheilinus digrammus)

    #2 is a blenny, most likely a Cirripectes species but can't tell more from this shot angle

    #3 juvenile spiny chromis (Acanthochromis polyacanthus)

    #4 is definitely a dragonet. Either S. morrisoni as suggested or S. bartelsi (Bartel's dragonet). A shot from the side might be more conclusive.

    #5/6 not fish

  3. Thank you!
