Fish Soup

No, I'm not referring to a nice bisque or bouillabasse or any other new-found Indonesian gastronomic delight...



This is a photo I took on a dive yesterday at a dive site not far from the Waiwo Field Station... "Mios Kon" (in the locally language literally Mios = island, Kon = small/little; so the dive site is called "little island"). It is quickly turning into one of my favourite sites in Raja Ampat! The fish in the photo are mostly fusiliers, who were thick in the water yesterday! With every dive at Mios Kon there is something new to see, and it has the absolutely the most variety of fish of any site in the vicinity, from big to small (sharks, barracudas & jacks, and of course, fusiliers, snappers and anthias, right down to some wonderful little gobies and blennies). The site also boasts great coral coverage and lots of other interesting eye candy (Wobbeggon sharks, Giant clam, pygmy seahorse, and lots of shrimps and crabs on anemone).
