Description

These guys might not be the rarest find on earth but the Dragonet are relatively beautiful fish, at least when they are young.

The Juvenile Orange & Black dragonet comes with oranges, yellows, blues and more when small and as they mature turn a sandy brown. Sounds like some office workers I know back home.

Here is another shot of one.

Orange and Black Dragonette

They can be a bit tricky to photograph, as they move frequently and when they do, it is more like a hop your eyes can’t follow, this is also how they feed, ambushing smaller prey with lightning speed.

In my opinion, they are not overly light sensitive, they just get annoyed at you being around for too long and disturbing their feeding.

Happy hunting!

Down there, you have absolu [...]

Whip Coral Shrimp In The Black Of Night

Actually this was not a night dive, it was just very dark and with the right camera settings it was simple enough to turn the dark expanse of navy blue behind this little shrimp to blackness. I normally don't like taking photos of Whip Coral denizens, there is a nasty trait amongst guides to move th [...]

Ambon Scorpion Fish – Not Just A Seasonal Fluke

Last season at Kata Beach (Nov 2017 - May 2018) I posted some fairly interesting finds, one of which was, of course, the Ambon Scorpion Fish, something that is not meant to be in the waters around Phuket and something as far as I know, had not been found by anyone else here (bragging). We did qui [...]
