I don’t recall ever seeing so many squid for such a prolonged period…

Must be to make up for the West Coast Die Off!

Evening Scott. Someone just passed by the cam. Annie B.

Hi, Scott and Annie...looks like someone has a barnacle!

Barbara, you better medicate him. lol Annie B.

Hi all. Gosh I hate it when I get barnacles, it’s so annoying.

Perhaps an acne preparation for fishes? LOL, Annie!

Hey, Annie, Scott!!! Slim's back! Wish he'd clean the lens!

or maybe he's looking to surgically remove the barnacle :-)

Barbara, Now that's funny. Annie B.

Here’s Charlotte! No barnacles either.

What we need is a good Surgeonfish!

(couldn’t resist being punny)

Someone peeking in...perhaps the mystery fish from earlier today..new angle!

GMTA, Scott!

That’s Charlotte, the resident Yellowtail Damselfish. She’s been around for quite some time.

Charlotte looks quite sad. Maybe the sunsets will cheer her up. Annie B.

Hey Snork, Good capture of Charlotte. She sure is pretty. Any idea on how long these fishes live for. Annie B.

Forgetting my manners here. Evening Zodmeh.

Hmm, didn't recognize her without the tail in the first shot! She's also been upstaged by a number of other fish recently Annie, like hotlips, slim, squid! Must be getting to her :-)

Snork, Read the info on Damselfish. Didn't understand a flamin' word. Will read again tomorrow when the Wodka worn off. ( do you mind the name Snork, don't want to offend. me lazy) Annie B.

See, here's slim again...great link, Scott!

Barbara, Slim's lovin' the limelight I think. Where is everybody else tonight. Annie B.

Maybe the wogga and back pills and late nights got to Martine...don't know about the rest and I'm getting close to signing out(pending any last minute great photos)! Have a good eve!

Yep Barbara, Late for me too and I promised myself an early night. I'll say night night in case you, or I, want to go.

Another great sunset.

I don’t know how long they live. My guess is that life expectancy for marine fish is not generally well known unless reared in captivity and then it’s only life in captivity. With the exception of animals that have been tagged and followed for years (Whales, dolphins, etc.) I’ve personally never seen life expectancy statistics. It would be interesting to know if they do exist.

When I was a teenager I had a pair of Yellowtail Damselfish in an aquarium that lived for several years; of course I don’t know how old they were when I got them.

Please note that I’ve become quite the liberal in my old age and generally believe fish should enjoyed in their house and not mine (except with a lemon, olive oil & cappers.) Must be dinnertime!

Poor Charlotte, I agree I think she’s been pushed out of her old house, particularly by Hotlips (Orange Spot Filefish)

Goodnight…dinner time hear in the States (Mid-Atlantic), see you again soon!

Goodnight, Annie..I'm off into the traffic home! See you tomorrow!

And goodnight, Scott!

ooooo...

Goodnight everybody. Tomorrow is another day. Sleep well. Annie B.

Nice sunset Snork, See ya tomorrow. Annie B.
