A couple more:
This is a Lined Butterflyfish. We took a ziplog baggie of frozen peas out with us on one trip (and were scolded for our efforts by "some old lady" according to one of my diving partners). This made us very popular among the piscine porkers in the cove. This fellow's boldness was rewarded with a number of whole peas. He literally ate from my hand--then dashed away. Again and again his skittishness was barely mastered by his hunger.
