Zebra Lionfish  Dendrochirus zebra

From my weekend dive, an immature Zebra Lionfish, also saw a large red lionfish but it was hiding inside a huge old tire so not really amenable to good shots.  These have numerous venomous spines so are definitely on the look, don't touch list.

Lovely sharp details and a colorful setting - you've been getting great results on your dives.
