Lembeh trip - critter identification

[bhood541]

Hi all, done ok with my identification apart form these two. I thought the first was a type of waspfish but can't find a similar one search on the net.

If you have common and scientific names for these that would be great

The second photo looks like some kind of devil scorpion fish... very common name, sorry

Thanks again MrsBBC, found out that the 2nd one is a

Demon Stinger Scorpionfish (​

Inimicus didactylus

).

Does anyone have any ideas on the type of crab in the 1st photo?

Hi,

the first one is type of spider crab, if not mistaken part of majidae lembeh species.
