Flying Gurnard

[marku]

They're not particularly rare down here.
I've seen a few since I started diving, I prefer Black durgons though

Black durgons? Sounds like something that belongs in Middle Earth. Can I find it in the dark pool beneath the West gate of Moriah?

Is this a rare fish? What family?

only seen once and they were pics from you

Black Durgeon? One of the most common fish in the carib, and similar to an large red toothed triggerfish without the annoying grunting noise.

I wrote one of my weekly newspaper columns on this species after filming one in a shallow lagoon off a small caye in Belize. Here is the link to that article which has some info on the species:

Well done Dr Bill! It appears you've used a camera before.
