The ones I'm not sure about are;
#12 -- The Parrotfish -- hard to tell from pic
#25 -- The medusa worm --exactly which species
#26 -- The tang in the last pic -- could be a number of Acanthurus tangs
#23/#15 -- The damsel/chromis. I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's correct ID in #23, and based on that, the unknown black fish in #15 is the adult damsel (they change to all black as adults).
It also is not an underwater camera - just a regular camera in like a plastic bag like housing, so color is off. Oh well. Only went to 2 sites for snorkeling, and they were shore areas so not particularly great.
thanks for sharing
