Good Viz yesterday, this is a screenshot of a flyover video
This morning at Mixing Bowl on Bloody Bay Wall.
Spectacular picture of Black Durgon. Well done. How shallow was this? It's rare to see coloration like this. Most people have only ever seen "black" ones. Mating behavior, perhaps?
The black durgons were at about 30 feet on the slope that marks the transition from Bloody Bay's hardpan down to Jackson Bay's sand channel...pretty close to being under the Mixing Bowl mooring.
Not wanting to venture a guess between foreplay and fighting, I asked the DM who said it was mating behavior.
The picture is a frame from a ~10 second video (Picture of the Day
) showing the two black durgons swimming in a circle opposite each other.I got lucky spotting these...I have way too many pictures of black durgons that turn out to be black disks with fins and two white lines!

I wonder if I could get a Fish ID on this one - seen at the Spanish Anchor dive site (West Side). Initial thoughts were Lizardfish but I am leaning more toward it being a Sand Diver, due to the black spot above the gill cover. Thoughts?

Took the day off from diving to sit in on sax with a jazz band at Next Door Lounge in Camana Bay (plus an obligatory dive photo taken at Marty's Wall)
Bloody Bay Wall.

You know that you are back in the Brac when this guy shows up during morning coffee. Lucky for me, he didn’t want any of my coffee, just a few grapes for breakfast
