Cowfish and Wrecks
![There's a family of fish called Trunkfishes or Cowfishes that have slightly different patterns. This is a Honeycomb
Cowfish (Acanthostracion polygonius) at The Rock.](images/wIMG_7091.jpg)
![And so is this one, also at The Rock.](images/wIMG_7089.jpg)
![...and yet another at The Rock.](images/wIMG_7078.jpg)
![This one's from Japanese Gardens.](images/wIMG_7066.jpg)
![...whereas this one is a Spotted trunkfish (Lactophrys caudalis) at Purple Rain.](images/wIMG_7038.jpg)
![And here's another at Big Sand.](images/wIMG_6884.jpg)
![But what's this one at Valleys? Is it a Smooth trunkfish (Lactophrys triqueter)? Or is it a Buffalo trunkfish (Lactophrys trigonus)?](images/wIMG_6732.jpg)
![And what on earth is this one? It's got the spines above the eyes, so it must be a Honeycomb cowfish, And it has the hexagonal
pattern, but it's almost pure white. I give up...](images/wIMG_7131.jpg)
![Anyway, onto some wrecks. Dive leader Gary looks warily at a huge Great barracuda (Sphyraena barracuda) at 35m on the Bianca C wreck.](images/wIMG_6565.jpg)

![The solidified cement sacks in the hold of the MV Shak'em.](images/wIMG_6754.jpg)
![The end of the dive - we are thrown a floating line to grab hold of to ensure we don't drift away from the MV 'Astonia' dive boat.](images/wIMG_6949.jpg)
