no frogfish? what about all those awesome froggies in Dauin? I think I remembered coming across at least 4 different colored ones. Favorite was the yellow and red one

We have some frog fish looking ones right outside the house, but a good friend who knows more about fish and marine life than I would ever hope to told us it was not a frog fish. I found 2 new ones yesterday but ddnt have my camera, so I will try to find them again next time I go out with camera.

Thanks for posting D' Guy, I sure miss diving those Philippine waters. Did you get a chance to see "Clownfish City" on Apo Island?

And the fish with the horns is a Cowfish from the puffer family and the "trumpet" is a barrel sponge. Please keep those memories coming.

Careful with these Mantis Shrimp. They can crack your housing, or finger, if you get too close.

Do you live in Dumaguete?
