This strange fish is called a Caledonian stinger. He's a relative of the stonefish, and supposedly packs a wallop. I didn't get close enough to find out. In fact, I didn't get as close as I wanted, since I was down there with my 200, and he's pretty big -- maybe 15 inches long. So I just got the eye.

Nikon F4, 200mm f/4 AF Micro-Nikkor, Aquatica Housing, 2 Ikelite AI/n strobes, f/16, Kodak Royal Gold 100.
