This isn't the greatest shot in the world, but the best that I could get of the little guy after about 10mins of hanging next to his hole... Before I finally gave up and swam on.

Unfortunately, I have no angelfish pics, so I can't add to this one.

Angels out here are hard to shoot, they are very spooky. They won't let you get too close.

Zaf.....IIRC it was set on 5 or 6.

Rooster....for spooky subjects, you sure got some good shots of them! What kind of Angels? I love the colors and patterns, so different from 'ours', too.

These guys are very secretive. They dart into holes, crevices, or around a coral heads when you get close. The trick is to anticipate were they will come out and wait. Some times you get lucky. The first one is a Regal Angelfish and the second one is an Emperor Angelfish

But I could be wrong. This is also the first time I monkied around with the image so the size would work out here...hope it turns out ok.

Peace,
