I saw this fish in Cozumel snorkeling by the shoreline. Is has a long, needle-like 'nose'.

Does anyonw know what it is?

Thanks

That one's a Ballyhoo
Second one's a Sergeant Major
Third one's a Permit or a Palometa, most likely a Permit

Is there a website that I can look at that I can find fish identification information?

Or I can just keep posting my photos here..

I like enature . Not ALL of the fish in the world are listed, but it's cheaper than buying a book.
