Nicaragua Pacific Reef Pics!

[scuba-raru]

Hey guys, just thought i'd post some pics of something many of us dont get to see very often. These are pictures I took while diving in Nicaraguas Pacific Coast, there are a few good ones of Passer angels, Puffers & Butterfly fish and others...its cool to see these guys in the wild. Hope you enjoy the pics!

Glad you guys like them...the coral in the Pacific coast of Nic. is not like in the caribbean, its more huge boulders covered in TONS of coraline algae, many cracks, caves and crevaces to explore, theres lots of sun corals, fans, leathers, gorgonias, soft corals and sponges, tons of urchins, molluscs and LOTS of angel fish, here are a few more pics...
