Pretty Puffer In Belize (and other fish)

Was looking through old pictures and I found some from a trip to Belize a few years ago. Canon G7 with underwater housing. Favorite camera I have owned but it was stolen in Australia the next year

I think this was in Hol Chan canyon... just off San Pedro island but these guys were all over the place. More puffers, gorgonians and sharks then I have ever seen anywhere else!

Just thought I would share. I can probably dig up some more. I should have Whale Shark pics somewhere.

Maybe 3" or so. They were all over. This species of Toby Puffer especially.

This was about 3 years back exactly. April. We didn't know about this when we went to Belize but the Whale Sharks were migrating north...most of the pics suck cause it was quite dark but I have a few.

This is about the best one...

Some kind of reef shark. I have to admit this guy freaked me out. This is the only picture of him from a distance because I kind of froze when he got closer. Never came that close but still. He was kind of scary.
