Nice fish. Shame about the eggs

Noting the full moon, a couple of us took the plunge last night in the hope that coral might be spawning as had happened in Palau a couple of nights before. Little joy on that front: just one coral head spawning and I was unable to capture it on film or photo. Anyway, I came away with some lovely shots of an Octopus and my first view of a Stargazer.

Whilst many hard corals only come out at night, soft corals are often open in the day, like this one (from the family ALCYONIIDAE I believe) which I took on 17th November 2007 at Clement's reef north of Sapi Island.
