Angels and Devils
Blue Devil Fish - Paraplesiops bleekeri and a Flame Angel Fish - Centropyge loriluca.
Blue Devil fish live in exposed reef from 3-30m deep. They range from Montague Island NSW to the gold Coast in QLD. They range in length and can grow to a maximum of 40cms.
Centropyge is a genus of marine angelfishes. Marine angelfishes are a type of perciform fish of the family Pomacanthidae. Found on shallow reefs in the tropical Atlantic, Indian, and mostly western Pacific Ocean, the family contains seven genera and approximately 86 species. Species in this group do not exceed 15cm in length. My little fish is a Flame Angel, Centropyge loricula
Extremely unlikely these would ever be seen together, and the idea was triggered by my guilt over not completing the under the sea topic. End of the semester is two weeks away. My illustration this week was roughed out while talking over the Internet to Erik. The nice thing about computer to computer phoning is it's ok to go for long periods with a steady clicking and no talking; something you don't do when you're paying .47 cents a minute.
