Indonesian fish

[vondo]

I spent a couple of weeks on Bali and on Gili Air and have some fish I cannot find. Some of these I feel should be easy; maybe I am just burned out paging through books...


Small fish clustering around an anemone. Muck diving on Lombok.


I assumed some sort of unicorn or rabbit fish, but could not find one. On the Liberty Wreck


This is the really embarrassing one... Schooling in Gili islands


From Tulamben

Thanks for any help anyone has!

I would say some type of surgeon fish, due to the spine near the tail. Possibly pencilled surgeon fish? Just a guess.

1 Some type of juv. cardinalfish - maybe Moluccen but difficult to be sure. Apogon monospilus
2 Weird colour! Guess your white balance is off. Shape looks like a Bignose Unicornfish - Naso vlamingi
3 A type of Chub - I find the various species very difficult to distinguish
4 Photo very dark on my monitor and can't make out the fish's shape. Colour pattern could indicate Miller's Damsel - Asterropterryx ensiferus. Despite the name this is a type of goby.

Hope this helps

Thanks. I think you are right on all of them. The white balance may be off on the Unicornfish (I set it as best I could). It was also a pre-dawn dive, so it's possible the fish was colored differently.

I went with Topsail Drummer for the chub. Other photos really show that high back part of the fin.
